History of Riverside. 



CITAPTIvK' I. 

i;ar;,v iiisTokv. 

It is i<llc to sijcriilrite on llie appear-iiire of tlie country now coni- 
l^risinj^ kivcrside, or ou the* tharacter of its inhabitants, a luin<lre<l 
years a^o. JJoiil>tless tlie children of the forest, whose descendants 
were found lure when the jjresent lords of the soil look possession, 
held peaceable and undisj»iited r^wnershij). They ale and drank — they 
loved and halerl— they lived anrl died as their forefathers had done, 
little drcaininj^, perhaps, that the day was drawinj/ nigh when the 
jjarched jjlains and sterile soil, that refused to yield its products to their 
Ijriniitive system of cultivation, was soon to burst forth into beauty 
and niagnificence unequalled in any other part of the world. 

When Columbus crossed the ocean four hundre'I years ago and a 
new continent lay at his feet, who can tell what scenes were being en- 
acted here?. Or when the great bell of Congress Hall rang out the 
notes of liberty, proclaiming the birth of a nation, who knpws whether 
there was peace or war, prosperity or want, where we now make our 
homes and where the sound of the church bell and the scream of the 
locomotive have silenced forever the war whoop of the Indian anrl the 
roar of the wild beast? 

All the past is dark as night, and we search in vain for tongue or 
pen to cast even a tinge of sunshine upon the history of Riverside uj) 
to the year 1H38— only fifty-five years ago. 

'fHlv MEXICAN f,KANT. 

"vSeven leagues of grazing land: a little more," is the peculiar 
phraseology of the document by which Juan Bajulini, a i)rominent 
Spaniard of San Diego, was made possessor of that then almost worth- 
less, but now invaluable, tract known as the "Jurupa ranch." The 
grant was made to Mr. IJandini on the 28th .September, 1838, by Juan 
H. Alvara<lo, "Political Chief (iff Inti'rlni,'' but, in i>lain Ivnglisli, (Gov- 
ernor of California. 

\'.y the terms of the grant, Handini at once settled on his newly- 
acquired dojnain. 

His old residetice was, up to a recent date, to be seen on a bluff on 
the west side of the river eight or ten miles below Riverside. That old 
landmark, however, has nearly disappeared ; nothing is to be seen of it

now but the crumbling adobe walls of his house and some lines of trees 
which have withstood the wear and tear of time. 

His daughter, who first married Mr. Abel Stearns, was well known 
heie for manj' years. She afterward removed to Los Angeles and mar- 
ried Col. Baker, a well known capitalist of that city. She is now Col. 
Baker's widow. 

Some few years after Juan Bandini became possessed of this im- 
mense grant he sold a portion of it— one and one-half leagues, or 6749.99 
acres — to Benito Wilson who afterwards transferred it to Luis Rvibidoux, 
who resided a short distance west of the river in the hoi^se now occu- 
pied by Mrs. M. R. Daley. The Rubidoux family thus, as a matter of 
course, became deeph- interested in the prosperit}- of the whole of what 
was then known as the Rubidoux ranch, and much of which is now 
within the limits of the city rf Riverside. 

On the 19th of November, 1869, Messrs. Provost, Cover, Pine, 
Stewart, Linden, and others, comprising the California Silk Center 
Association, purchased from Luis Rubidoux an undivided six-tenths of 
his ranch. Early in the following year Mr. Provost went to San Fran- 
cisco to make final arrangements for colonizing and improving the 
lands of the Association and for completing the purchase of a large 
tract of government land south of Riverside. While al^sent from his 
associates, who were then living in Los Angeles and San Bernardino, 
Mr. Provost was taken sick and died, and as he was the only one of the 
Association who understood the silk growing business there was found 
no one to take his place in the enterprise, which was abandoned and 
the land placed on the market for sale. 

Such was the condition of matters in this place in the opening and 
middle months of 1870, and here, perhaps, may appropriately end the 
first chapter in the history of Riverside. 



CHAPTER II. 



THE SOUTHERN CAl^IFORNIA COIvONV ASSOCIATION. 

We will change the scene for a time from California to agencies 
that were working on men's minds in other parts of the United States. 

The wild rush for gold that had well-nigh depleted many parts of 
the Union of their men of action, thought and energy, had somewhat 
subsided. Some of the fortunate had returned to the East wdth their 
gold, others had returned as poor as they came ; but all went back to 
tell of the wonderful country — the magnificent climate — the fertility of 
its valleys and the health-inspiring breezes that were wafted through 
its hills and mountains. Men everywhere turned, in thought at least, 
to the Golden State. Those whose business would allow it prepared to 
come, and then commenced the steady, might}- inflow of people that 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. !«' 



settled up the country fnm. Siskiyou to Sau Die^o a.xl from Nevada to 

u' was uot the sh.u'U^ar.ls of the East who sought new houies be- 
vou.l the Rockv Mountains, but, in the main, it was men of brains, of 
muscle energy and wealth, who came here to seek and to make their 
fortunes. Such, at least, were the men who came to Riverside and 
whose history is briefly recorded in the following pages. 

Vwav back in Tennessee, in 1S70, J. W. North, a man of wonderful 
executive abilitv, as well as possessing every other trait of character 
necessary to coiistitute him a leader among his fellows, had determined 
to remove with his family to California, and, fully realizing the advant- 
ages of combined effort, issued the following circular in March. 1S70. 

The writer is indebted to Mr. John G. North of this city for the use 
of the only copy of this circular which is known to have escaped the 
ravages of time, and which is highly prized by him as the work of his 
father, and as the immediate cau.se of the building of the beautiful city 
and the creation of the colony that followed its issuance. 
The following is an exact copy of the circular : 

A Colony for California. 

- The undersigne<l, in association with personal friends and corres- 
pondents in the North and West, as well as with a considerable number 
of good people in di(ferent states of the South, is now engaged in or- 
ganizing a Colony for settlement in Southern California, on or near the 
line of the Southern Pacific Railroad. 

"Appreciating the advantages of associated settlement, we aim to 
secure at least 100 good families, who can invest $1000 each, in the 
purchase of land ; while at the same time we earnestly invite all good, 
in.lustrious people to join us, who can, by investing a smaller amount, 
contribute in any degree to the general prosperity. We do not expect 
to buy as much land for the same money, in Southern California, as we 
could obtain in the remote parts of Colorado or Wyoming ; but we ex- 
pect it will be worth more, in proportion to cost, than any other land 
we could purchase within the United States. It will cost something 
more to get to California than it would to reach the States this side of the 
mountains ; but we are very confident that the superior advantages of 
soil and climate will compensate us many times over for this increased 

expense. 

" Experience in the We.st has demonstrated that $100, invested in 
a colony, is worth f 1000 invested in an isolated locality. 

"We wish to forma colony of intelligent, industrious and enter- 
prising people, so that each one's industry will help to promote his 
neighbor's interests, as well as his own. It is desirable, if possible, 
that every one shall be consulted in regard to location and purchase ; 
but since tho.se who will compo.se the colony are now scattered from 
Maine to Texas, and from Georgia to Minnesota and Nevada, this seems 



16 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

next to impossible. For this reason it is proposed that some men of 
large means, who are interested in the enterprise, shall, in connection 
with as man}' as can conventiently act with them, select and pnrchase 
land sufficient for a colony of 10,000 persons. Let this be subdivided 
and sold to the subscribers at the lowest figure practicable, after pay- 
ing the expenses of purchase and subdivision. We hope in this way to 
arrange it so that each individual shall receive his title when he pays 
his money and commences in good faith to improve his property. It 
is also proposed to lay out a Town in a convenient locality, so that as 
many of the subscribers as possible can reside in the Town and enjoy 
all the advantages which a first class Town affords. We expect to have 
Schools, Churches, Lyceum, Public Library, Reading-room, etc., at a 
very early da}', and we invite such people to join our colony as will 
esteem it a privilege to build them. 

" Many who wish to join the colony have not the money in hand 
to defray traveling expenses, and pay the full price for their land at 
once. We hope to make arrangements for the accommodation of all 
such, so that they can pay a part down, and the balance in yearly in- 
stallments with interest. Each subscriber will be allowed to purchase 
160 acres of farming land and two Town lots — or a less amount if de- 
sired. It is expected that every subscriber will reside upon and im- 
prove his property, within one year of the time of subscribing, other- 
wise he will lose his rights as a member of the colony. 

"All persons of good character, signifying, in writing, their wish 
to become members of the colony, and sending ten dollars as a location 
fee, will be regarded as subscribers. Those writing for information, 
who are not subscribers, will be expected to enclose one dollar toward 
defraying the expenses of circulars and correspondence. 

" Those who wish to join the colony from New England are re- 
quested to write and send their names to the Rev. S. W^. Bush, ^Bureau 
of Emigration,' 36 Chaiincy St. Boston. 

"Those in the Middle and Southern States, are requested to write 
me at Dewitt, Onondaga County, N. Y. 

" Those in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin will please 
write. Dr. J. P. Greves, Marshall, Mich. 

"Those who wish to join the colony from Minnesota and Iowa, are 
invited to write me at Dewitt, Onondaga Co. N. Y., or to David H. 
Frost, Esq., Belle Plaine, Iowa. We hope to make up a party of sub- 
scribers to visit California in May next, and determine on a location. 
It is desirable that the subscribers in each of the above localities should 
be represented in that party. We wish to secure early and prompt 
action, with as little machinery and routine as possible. We wish to 
secure all the advantages of a good colony, with as few preliminary 
conditions, and restrictions,, as is consistent with the best success. We 
invite the earnest co-operation of all good people, who wish for homes 
in that land that the early Missionaries thought 'fit for the abode of 
Angels,' {Los Angeles.) 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. 17 

"All who wish lo join us are requested to semi in their names as 
early as possible, and before the first of July next. Further arrange- 
ments will be made as soon as we can confer with subscribers. 

J. W. NORTH. 

"KxoxviM^K, Ti:nn., M.\Kcn 17, 1870." 

This step seems to have had its desired effect, as we learn from sev- 
eral of the Riverside pioneers who attribute their first knowledge of 
this part of California to the perusal of the above circular, while yet in 
their Eastern homes. 

Seven months of organization, correspondence and preparation 
brought out another circular, also issued by Judge North. This circular 
is equally rare as the one copied above and we are indebted to the same 
.source for the only existing cop3-. From this latter we make extracts 
embodying all that will be of interest to our readers as matters of his- 
tory : 

Southern California Colony. 

"This colony, of which some notice was given bj- circulars, in 
INIarch last, is finally located and organized. After several months of 
examination, in company with gentlemen from New York, Michigan, 
Wisconsin, Iowa and Tennessee, a .selectii n has been made, about fifty 
miles from Los Angeles, which combines the following advantages, viz: 
A plenty of good land, an abundance of pure, running water, a delight- 
fully genial and healthful climate, a soil adapted to the production of 
all grains and vegetables, as well as the common and semi-tropical 
fruits. 

" In addition to this, we have, on the property- purchased, excellent 
material for brick, and a small mountain of marble, that makes the 
best of lime, and fine material for building. A large amount of timber, 
suitable for fencing and fuel, is growing on the property, and pine lum- 
ber can be purchased for twenty-five dollars per thousand. This loca- 
tion has been chosen bj- ITr. Provost, (the pioneer silk culturist of Cali- 
fornia) before his death, as the best locality in the State for silk culture. 
The company is incorporated under the laws of California, and named 
' The Southern California Colony Association.' 

" This location is twelve miles toward the coast, from San Bernar- 
dino ; is near the proposed line of the Southern Pacific Railroad, and 
on the line of Railroad now being surveyed between the coast and San 
Bernardino. A telegraph line is expected to be constructed through 
the property the present season. Our postoffice address, for the pres- 
ent, is San Bernardino. 

********* 

"A Town site is now being surveyed. A few choice lots will be 
given to those who build and establish business on them before the Ist 
of January next. Other lots will be sold at from twenty-five to two 
hundred dollars each, according to location and value. Lamls in lots 



18 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY^ OF 

of from ten to twenty acres, adjoining the town, will be sold, for the 
present, at twenty dollars per acre ; and other lands at two and a half 
to five, ten and fifteen dollars per acre, according to location. 

# -x- ****** » 

" This liastil}' prepared circular is issued to give necessary informa- 
tion to many friends who are waiting for it. We hope to issue a more 
complete one after a few uionths. 

J. W NORTH, 

Pretiidcnt and General Agent. 
" S.'VN Francisco, Cal., Oct. lo, 1870." 

Notwithstanding the great efforts put forth to have a large number 
of colonists come out at once, but few came in the fall of 1870. 

It will be interesting to read a short biographical sketch of Judge 
E. G. Brown, further along in this work. He was one of the few who 
accompanied Judge North to this coast on his first trip, early in May, 
1870, and through whose instrumentality, as well as that of others, the 
purchase of the Riverside property was finally decided upon. The 
part borne in the negotiations, and the influence exerted in the forma- 
tion of the colony, Ijy Judge Brown can hardly be overestimated ; and, 
that he did not become a member of the colony himself, was not from 
any outside cause, but, as the Judge modestl}^ and truthfulU' puts it, 
"owing to financial reverses," for which he was in no wise responsible. 

Another name that will go down to posterity as a firm friend and 
one of the most energetic and intelligent pioneers of Riverside is that 
of Dr. K. D. Shugart. Following in this work will be found a portrait 
and biographical sketch of the Doctor, who is known and beloved by 
more people in Riverside than perhaps any of Riverside's founders. 

PURCHASE OF THE SITE. 

It is useless to follow tlie projectors of the Colony Association in 
their prolonged and faithful search for the best place to locate a colony. 
We extract a brief review of their efforts from the account given of it 
by Judge Brown : 

" Five weeks were spent examining ranch after ranch and the con- 
ditions under which the best results had obtained. There were a few 
orange groves then in the country, and a number of vineyards, but the 
one great fact was everywhere apparent: Land was not wanting, but 
water was ; water in sufficient quantity and in available places. After 
two or three weeks' profitless search. Judge North returned to San 
Francisco, and after four weeks A. J. Twogood, one of the party that 
came with Judge North, returned to Iowa without any definite results 
having been obtained." 

Soon after this. Judge Brown received the proposition from the Silk 
Center Association to purchase their tract. On the 25d June, Dr. 
Graves, Messrs. Brink and Holmes, together witli Judge Brown, drove 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. ID 

from Los Aiij^eles to Sail Heriiardiiio, and next day tliis jiarty, rein- 
force<l by James Stuart an<l Dudley Tine, drove over to see the lands of 
the Silk Center Association. Tiie party was pleased with the lands 
and so reported to Judj^e North, then in Sun IVancisco. 

Durinj^ the followinj^ two months, nothinj^ definite was decided 
ui)on. In Auj^ust, however, iiej^otiations were resumed and Dr. Shu- 
gart, who had come from Iowa backed by extensive capital, appeared 
ou the scene and came down from San Francisco, where by accident he 
had failed to meet Judge North. On the 24th of August, Dr. Shugart, 
Dr. Graves and Mr. Luther, who represented Hon. Charles N. P'elton, 
accompanied by Jas. Stewart of San Bernardino, representing the Silk 
Center .Vsjiociation, visited the land, and unanimously agreed that tliis 
was the most desiraljle place they had seen. 

The recommendations of all who had seen the land were suflicient 
to induce its purchase, and on the 13th of September, 1870, the contract 
was signed between the Silk Center Association and the Southern Cali- 
fornia Colony Association. INIr. Felton — since then Senator Feltoii — 
was the chief financial factor in the transaction, he owning four- 
sevenths of the stock of the compan\'. 

Thus we see as the direct result of Judge North's circular inviting 
co-operation, the Southern California Colonj- Association the owners of 
7555 acres of land, lying mainly within the Jurupa ranch, the remain- 
der being government laud owned Ijy the Silk Center Association prior 
to the transfer. 



CHAPTER III. 

RIVER.SIDK UNDER THE SOUTHERN CAI.IFORNI.V COI.ONV ASSOCIATION. 

The purchase of the large tract of land, as recorded in our last 
chapter, had been accomplished, and the principal parties thereto had 
never been on nor seen a foot of the land, yet so well satisfied were they 
with the description given by those who had investigated the matter, 
that they paid their money and at once commenced to plan for the 
future. And right fortunate has it been for Riverside that from the 
very first they were not only men who could plan well, but that they 
were equally good at carrying these plans into execution. 

After the purchase, which was made on the 13111 of September, 
1870, active operations were commenced about as follows by the leading 
members of the Colony Association : 

Dr. Greves remained here and was an active worker from the very 
first. 

Judge North went to Iowa for his family and returned in Novem- 
ber, 1870. He first resided in a small house on the ])resent site of the 
Riverside Hotel. 

Dr. K. D. Sliugart went to his home in Iowa almost immediately 



20 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

after the signing of the contract for the purchase of the land. He was not 
absent long, but returned with his famih- on the Stli of December, 1870, 
in companj' with L. C. Waite, Esq., who afterward became his son-in- 
law. The Doctor lived in San Bernardino while a house was being 
erected on his lot on Ninth street. 

D. C. Twogood came about the same time, having had a small 
house built on the East Side. He afterward removed this building to 
the place of his present residence, on Prospect avenue. 

A. J. Twogood did not reach Riverside until the following June ; 
then, with his family, he resided for a time with D. C. Twogood on the 
East Side. 

E. G. Brown, with his family, came early in the spring of 1871. 
He located on the East Side, wliere he still lives in the enjoyment of 
his hard-earned competence. His home is the "Anchorage," which 
for beauty and comfort is not surpassed in this city of palatial homes. 

T. J. Wood had been for three years a resident of San Bernardino. 
He erected the first dwelling house ever put up in Riverside, and with 
his family moved into it on the 28th of October, 1870. Mr. Wood has 
the honor of being the first actual resident of the city. The house is 
still standing on Seventh street just north of the Santa Fe depot. 

Dr. Sanford Eastman, who arrived from the East and came to 
Riverside on the same day as Dr. Shugart, was a man of education and 
fine culture. He was a physician and surgeon of Buffalo, N. Y., and in 
his death, in 1874, this colony lost a good friend and an enthusiastic 
worker. 

Thos. W. Cover was, at the time of the purchase, a large stockhol- 
der in the Silk Center Association, and when that company's interests 
passed to the Southern California Colony Association, Mr. Cover took 
an interest in the latter cempany and was at once placed in charge of 
the important work of developing water for the newly-acquired prop- 
erty. For a time Mrs. Cover and family continued to reside in Los 
Angeles, but afterward removed to Riverside and boarded at first with 
Mrs. Wood, in the house referred to above. See article and portrait of 
Mr. Cover in following pages. 

Among the earliest settlers in Riverside were Dr. Craig and his son 
Scipio, and Prof. Paine, his son-in-law. They took up Government 
claims north of the Arlington tract. The Doctor built the first hotel, 
called the Riverside House. This was completed in 1871, and was 
located between Sixth and Seventh, Orange and Lemon. This family, 
including Scipio, the editor of The Cilrograph, are now residents of 
Redlands, and while here, as well as in their new home, showed them- 
selves progressive, industrious and good citizens. 

In October, 1870, Dr. Smith and his son-in-law, Horton, and Ad. J. 
Smith and wife moved here, and early in 1871 Mrs. Ad. Smith gave 
birth to the first child born in the village. She was named Jessie Riv- 
erside Smith, the name of the place having just been changed from 
Jurupa to Riverside. 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1SI)3— 4-. 21 

There is a difference of opinion as to who named Riverside. Some 
give the honor to Dr. Greves ; others say that the clioice of name was 
made by Mr. Lutlier, one of the earliest members of the colon}-. But 
whatever may be the truth in the claim that Dr. Greves actually sug- 
gested the name, the archives of the corporation show that Mr. Luther 
l)roposed the change to the Board of Trustees, and on his suggestion 
" Riverside" was substituted for " Jurupa." 

At the time the colony purchased the Silk Center .\ssociation's 
land there were large tracts of unsurveyed Government land lying ad- 
jacent to and in some instances interlocking into the lands of the col- 
ony. One of the first steps of the company was to have this land sur- 
veyed, which it did at its own expense, and the United States Govern- 
ment afterwards accepted the survey made by the colony surveyors. 
This land was almo.st immediately settled upon, and is now held by 
many of its original claimants. 

On the West Side there were at the time a few settlers, mostly 
Mexican ranchers in verj- poor circumstances. The Rubidoux family, 
however, were blessed with plenty and were then, as now, highl}- re- 
spected. Cornelius Jensen, a man of broad ideas and the owner of a 
large tract of land, was then well known and soon developed into a 
firm friend of the newlj- arrived colonists. Ilr. Jensen was for years 
supervisor of his district and so well and favorably known that we have 
procured an elegant portrait of him, which, with a .sketch of his life, 
will be found further along in this work. 

It is not within the scope of this sketch to chronicle every step of 
the founders of this prosperous colony, but simply to show in brief how 
in the marvelously short time that has elapsed sinqe the colony com- 
menced operations the place has grown in population and wealth, as 
well as in all that constitutes a great and happ\- communit}-. 

There was no railroad within 300 miles, except a short line from 
Los Angeles to Wilmington. All travel to San Francisco was by water 
and the only way to get to Los Angeles was by private conveyance, or 
by stage from San Bernardino. 

The first canal was commenced in September, 1870, and finished as 
far as the town in June, 1871, at a cost of about ^50,000. But few trees 
were set out before the latter date and tho.se that were had to be kept 
alive by hauling water in barrels from Spring Brook, from one to two 
and a half miles from the houses then built. All the water for domes- 
tic use was procured in the same manner. 

The first citrus trees ever set out in Riverside were some orange, 
lemon and lime trees put out by Dr. Shugart on the ist day of March, 
1871, and it may be worthy of mention that the first shade trees planted 
in the colony were some peppers planted by him on Ninth street at the 
same time. To keep his trees alive, the doctor had water Iiauled in 
barrels, as above slated, at 25 cents a barrel, until the comj)leli()n of the 
canal. 

The first budde<l orange trees were introduced into the colony in 



22 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

1871 b_y Thos. W. Cover, who imported some Malta Bloods and had 
them set out in Judge North's grounds on Seventh and Vine streets, 
where they are now in fine condition. This was more than a year be- 
fore the Washington Navels were brought into Riverside. 

The colonists were discouraged by old settlers of the county, who 
assured them that orange trees would not grow on the soil of Riverside, 
and if they did they surely would not bear anything; and ifwas neces- 
sarily several years before this could be disproved by picking and eat- 
ing the first ripe fruit from Riverside trees. 

Land buyers complained that the price of land was too high, al- 
though bare land adjoining the town site, now worth $2000 per acre, 
was sold then by the company for $20 and $25. 

Little was known as to what was most profitable to plant, and be- 
side the seedling orange place was given to the seedling lemon, a total 
failure, and to the Knglish walnut, to which Riverside soil is not 
adapted. 

In the spring of 1871 Judge North planted seed to raise nursery trees, 
and from these seeds sprang some of the oldest orchard trees of River- 
side. 

The lands were sold without anj- ownership in the water except the 
right to buy it from the company, but it was supplied at a very low 
price, until the amount required was so increased b}- the growth of the 
colony as to compel charges commensurate with cost of supph-. 

At first the canal was crudely constructed, but it was improved and 
perfected as necessity demanded. 

Water was furnished to users as ordered b}' them, and delivered by 
the company on the highest corner of each irrigation tract. The price 
at first was four cents per inch for twenty-four hours' flow. This was 
divided into two and one-half cents for the day, and one and one-half 
cents for the night; but this division was abandoned, as it was found 
impracticable to deliver the water for less than twenty-four hours at a 
time, owing to the universal preference for day water, which resulted in 
much extra work for zanjeros and of an embarrassing amount of waste 
water at night. 

The price of water was afterwards advanced to six cents, then to 
seven and one-half cents per inch, and under the present compau}', to 
ten cents per inch. 

When the village plat of Riverside was surveyed in 1870-71, the 
lands adjoining the village were placed on the market at twenty and 
twenty-five dollars per acre for the choicest locations. These are the 
lands for which Luis Rubidoux received two dollars and a half per 
acre. It is related that Rubidoux stated to the board of supervisors at 
San Bernardino that, as the portion of his rancho south and east of the 
Santa Ana River was " vitterly worthless," he would pay no more taxes 
upon it. And he did not for years pay any taxes upon this " utterly 
worthless " land, which is the very land the city of Riverside stands 



RIVERSIDE COUNT V, 1 893-4-. 23 

on today, and the price of whicli is from one to two tlionsand dollars 
per acre. 

Lots in the village were placed on tlie market by the Colony Asso- 
ciation at from one to two hundred dollars each, that cannot be bought 
today for ten to twent\' thousand dollars each. 

In the autumn of 1S74, Benjamin Hartshorne, who had acquired 
from the government, sold to S. C. Kvans and Wm. T. Sayward the 
tract now known as .\rlington, and the purchasers immediately appro- 
])riated water from the Santa Ana River and began to construct a canal 
now known as the lower canal of the Riverside Water Company, to 
irrigate these lands. Thus began the interest in Riverside of S. C. 
Kvans, who for eighteen years has been a prominent figure in irrigation 
matters in the valley, and whose ripe years are crowned with the suc- 
cessful accomplishment of his plans and enterprises. Mr. Kvans is a 
man of unusual foresight, firmness of purpose and executive ability. 

During the years 1875-6 was formed the Riverside Land and Irriga- 
tion Compan\-, wliich purchased all the lands and rights of the South- 
ern California Colony Association. It also purchased some 3500 acres 
from Messrs. Sajward and S. C. Evans, comprising the Arlington tract 
referred to above and several other large tracts, which were consoli- 
dated into the territory now embraced in the city of Riverside. 

Thus passed out of existence as an active corporation the Southern 
California Colony Association, of which, during all its life, the Hon. J. 
W. North was its President. The first meeting of its Board of Direct- 
ors was held on the 21st of Sept., 1870, at which Judge J. W. North was 
chosen President ; John Broadhurst Vice-President; Dr. J. P. Greves 
Secretary, and John II. Stewart Treasurer. On the 15th of December 
following, the first annual meeting was held and the above officers were 
re-elected, except that Dr. D. K. Shugart was chosed Treasurer in place 
of Mr. Stewart, and that T. \V. Cover was at the meeting chosen super- 
intendent of canal construction. Dr. Sanford Kastman was subse- 
quently elected Secretarj'. 

Too much credit cannot be given the pioneers of Riverside for their 
almost superhuman eff"orts at creating and maintaining a prosperous 
town and colony in vSouthern California under the trying and adverse 
circumstances that met them at every step. It is not much wonder, 
then, that during the first few years of its liistory Riverside did not 
make such rapid growth as it has since. Tlie noble men, some of 
whom still live to see the fruition of their plans and the realization of 
their brightest dreams, are indeed the true friends of the people of Riv- 
'erside and entitled to all the gratitude and admiration that can be 
shown them. They built better than they knew, and througli the years 
to come their works will follow them. 

It has been too much the habit in the past to claim for tliis one or 
that one among the pioneers of Riversifle that he deserved all the 
credit, and that he is especially entitled to the distinction of being 
called the "fatlier of Riverside." Not so. We all perhaps are proud 



24 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

of our forefathers, but Riverside has more to be proud of, for it has 
more than four — it possesses a galaxy of grand names, who by and by 
will be honored more than they are now, when they are no more with 
us, but when they have all passed over to the "great majority," where 
so many of them have already gone. 



CHAPTER IV. 

RIVERSIDE UNDER THE l^AND AND IRRIGATION COMPANY. 

In April, 1S75, the most important and propitious event in the his- 
tory of Riverside occurred, namely, the formation of the Riverside 
Laud and Irrigation Company, which for nearly twenty years has 
shaped the destinies and engineered the prosperity of Riverside, so that 
from a very small nucleus and a by no means encouraging outlook the 
city has grown to its present proportions, until today it stands out as 
the proud and prosperous county seat of the Queen County of California. 

S. C. Evans is a native of Ohio and is now in his 70th year. At the 
age of 17 he removed to Indiana, where he resided for most of the time 
until, in 1874, he sold out his interest in Indiana and came to Riverside. 
Since that time his has been a busy life, and nearly every step in the 
advance of the cit}- has been activel}^ participated in by him. 

The history' of Riverside does not present an uninterruptedly smooth 
surface. Yet in stemming the current, sometimes against a strong tide, 
sometimes over comparatively peaceful waters, it is grand to notice that 
the little craft never lost ground from the day the first pioneer pitched 
his tent upon the barren, parched plain up to today. The march has 
been steadily upward and onward. The city has scarcely ever known 
the effect of a boom, and it has never hart a set-back. 

When the Honorable J. W. North retired from the presidency of 
the Southern California Colony Association, he did it with a proud con- 
sciousness that he had done his duty, and those who had entrusted him 
with the responsible position felt that he had never in one single in- 
stance betrayed them or proved recreant to the trust reposed in him. 

When Judge North laid down the helm, S. C. Evans took it up, and 
while the two men were very different in nearly every element of life 
and disposition, yet in this one important point they were alike — they 
each worked for the good of Riverside, but perhaps from somewhat 
different motives, as they necessarily viewed matters from different 
standpoints. 

When the Riverside Land and Irrigation Company was formed, 
Capt. Sayward was chosen President, who, with C. N. Felton and Mr. 
Evans, were the controlling element in the company, and they at once 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. 2") 

entered upon the business of iniprovin<i and Iniildinj,' up Riverside with 
a hearty good will. 

From this date (1875) up to 1SS2, the history of Riverside is simply 
a history of what the Land and Irrigation Company did, and we are 
satisfied this part of its history can best be told by Mr. Evans himself. 
The following is from an address delivered bj- that gentleman to the 
people of Riverside in January, 18S2 : 

" Kvans and Say ward purchased from Henj. Hartshorn of San Fran- 
cisco (the original purchaser from the United Slates), about 9000 acres, 
now known as the .\rlington tract. About the same time the San 
Jacinto Tin Company, owners of the San Jacinto Snbranto Rancho, seg- 
regated that part lying in the valley south of the Hartshorn tract, about 
3000 acres, and filed a claim for water from the Santa Ana River, each 
of the.se parties intending to develop the enterprises independent of 
each other and of the Southern California Colony Association, and to 
construct a canal in partnership, each paying one-half the cost, which 
was estimated would be about $35,000, expecting to take out water at Ru- 
bidoux Mountain, near the village of Riversiile. Work was commenced 
on the canals in the fall of 1884, and after expending about liy.ooo it 
was found that water could not be obtained at sufficient elevation with- 
out running through the lands of the Sauthern California Colony Asso- 
ciation and the Mexican settlement north of it. This was a serious 
dilemma, and caused a trip of S. C. Evans from Indiana in May, 1875, 
who, in company with Capt. Sayward and a committee from the Tin 
Compan\-, consisting of Gen. Carpentier, L. L. Robinson and Gen. 
Hutchinson, visited Riverside to see what could be done in the matter. 
It was a serious question whether to abandon the project, or go ahead 
and incur the very much greater expense of canals that was then tc>o 
apparent to contemplate with satisfaction ; and it was also ascertained 
by this time that only about 3500 acres of the 9000 of the Hartshorn 
could be placed under the canals at all. 

"The Southern California Colony Association considered the.se en- 
terprises as an opposition to theirs, and would not treat with them for 
right of way through their lands at any price, which complicated the 
difficulty still more. C. N. F^elton, one of the original projectors of 
the vSouthern California Colony Association, who had furnished the 
principal jiart of the necessary means and owned a majority of interest, 
four-sevenths of the stock, had got about enough of it, and proposed 
to .sell his interest at cost, which interest was purchased by Evans and 
Sayward and Tin Company for $50,000, as promising the best way out 
of the difficulty. 

" The solution of these difficulties caused the formation of the Riv- 
erside Land and Irrigating Company in April, 1S75, consolidating in it 
the interests of Evans and Sayward and tlie Tin Company, and the pur- 
chase by the Riverside Land and Irrigating Company of the controlling 
interest (of Felton) of the stock of the Southern California Colony 
Association, and finally the balance of the stock and all the property 



26 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

and franchises of the Southern California Colony Association, thereby 
consolidating all the different interests in the whole valley into the 
Riverside Land and Irrigating Companv; these parties — Evans and 
Sayward and Tin Company — agreeing to advance to the Riverside Land 
and Irrigating Company means to prosecute the work on canals. 

"The lower canal commenced by Evans and Sayward and Tin 
Company, and also the old Southern California Colonj- Association on 
upper canal were enlarged and both completed to present terminus, 
some eight miles south of Riverside, in October, 1876. at a cost ver}- 
much greater than was anticipated. 

" In December, 1879, at a meeting of the company in San Fran- 
cisco, the Tin Company sold their half interest to S. C. Evans, at which 
time the principal office of the company was removed to Riverside. 

'' It is a remarkable and very satisfactory fact that in the history of 
the colony from its commencement not a forced sale of property has 
been made, either by foreclosure of contract, mortgage or execution. 
Another remarkable feature is, that from the beginning of the present 
company in 1875 (notwithstanding depressions elsewhere), property has 
been steadily advancing in price (never gone back) from I.25 per acre 
to two and three hundred dollars per acre at the present day (January, 
1S82). 

" The Riverside Canal Company was formed in May, 1S78, by S. C. 
Evans, president; H. W. Carpentier, W. T. Sayward, H. J. Rudsill; E. 
Conway, secretary. In July, 1879, the Canal Company purchased from 
the Riverside Land and Irrigating Company the two canals, distribut- 
ing ditches, franchises, rights of way, land and other property connected 
therewith; giving in payment therefor all the capital stock, 20,000 
shares, at par value of twenty dollars, $400,000, with agreement that 
the capital stock shall be increased or decreased so as finalh^ to corres- 
pond with the number of acres that can be irrigated." 

With the subsequent events connected with the troublesome times 
that followed ; the formation of the Citizens Water Company, the Riv- 
erside Land Company and the Riverside Water Company ; with the 
litigation and heartburnings that were part and parcel of these times, 
we deem it entirely out of our province to meddle here. 

However, out of it all has come down to us that splendid system 
known as the Riverside Water Company, formed in 18S5, of which Geo. 
Frost is president, W. A. Correll secretarv, Francis Cuttle superintend- 
ent, and G. O. Newman chief engineer. This excellent company, made 
up of the citizens of Riverside, supplies about 12,000 acres of orchard 
lands with abundant irrigation. It has 46 miles of main canals and 
200 miles of laterals, which are being cemented and piped throughout — 
a system of water-works that courts comparison and defies competition 
with any other on earth, both as to system and results.

CHAPTER V. 

I..VTKR KVHNTS IN THH HISTDKV Ol- RlVlvRSlDK. 

It is not Nvithin our plan to follow in detail the later events in Riv- 
erside's historv. These occurrences are too fresh in the memory of our 
citizens to require delineating here, but we must not omit an event of 
so much importance as the incorporation of the city, which occurred 
on the 23d October, 18S3. The incorporation covers the whole territory 
of the Riversi.le tract, embracing about fifty-six square miles, of which 
two square miles form the business cehter of the city. Of this area 
thirty-three square miles are divided into tracts for small fruit farms of 
•five, ten, twentv and forty acres; twenty-one square miles are still 
used for grazing and hay-raising purposes, being al)ove any system ot 
irrigation existing at present, although it will undoubtedly, m the near 
future, be watered from the upper tributaries of the Santa Ana River. 
At the time of incorporation the assessed valuation of property in 
the city proper was $1,099,041; in 18S7 it was $3,589,783. and last year, 
1S93, it had risen to the sum of 15,834.410. 

In 18S9 the rate of taxation was only fifty-five cents on the $100. 
for municipal purposes. Since then it has remained at that low figure, 
except on one or two occasions it has only been fifty cents on the Jioo. 
Last year it was fifty-five cents. This is the lowest rate enjoyed by any 
city of equal size on the coast. 
The city has no debt. 
For further information in reference to the city government, see 

sub.sequent article. 

THE TURNING POINT IN Ol R HISTORV. 

Up to 1876 the few hardy pioneers who came to Riverside had a 
pretty difficult task to make a success of the colony enterprise, because 
orange growing was in the nature of an experiment. But when the 
fine "quality of the few oranges grown was realized it gave great encour- 
agement to those that were here, and lent an astonishing impetus to 
the causes of emigration. 

Other fruits were more extensively planted in the early years, not- 
ably the raisin grape, the apricot and the peach, but gradually these 
gave way to the orange and lemon, and when the evidence was fur- 
nished which proved that in the Washington navel orange, as grown 
upon our red soil, we had a variety unequalled in the world, the citrus 
industry leceived the almost exclusive attention of the orchardist. 

Magnolia avenue was laid out in 1876, and during the next two 
years the larger part of the orchards bordering that delightful drive for 
the fir.st four miles were planted. Year by year the acreage under the 
original water system has increased, until a street car line is required 
to run ten mile's through what is practically one continuous orange 



28 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

grove, to accommodate the residents upon the ten-acre orchards on 
either side. 

It has been the good fortune of Riverside that the holdings have in 
the main been small, and this has given her a population of well-to-do 
people, living in the country and yet easily accessible to schools, 
churches and places of amusement — a characteristic peculiar to an irri- 
gated country, where the water system is a tie to bind in close neigh- 
borly relations all who live under it, and make possible the providing 
of fine schools for the education of the youth, and the affording of social 
pleasures elsewhere only obtainable by living in confined and unhealthy 
city quarters. 

The basis of all the growth and wealth of the valle)' is the magnifi- 
cent water systems which furnish pure artesian water under pressure 
for drinking, and an almost unlimited supply for irrigation purposes. 
These are owned and controlled by the land-owners themselves. 

The important subjects of education, railroads, churches, biograph- 
ical sketches of prominent men, the city government, and a brief re- 
view of the business and professional houses of the city will Ije found in 
subsequent chapters. 

That Riverside is still making wonderful strides in material pros- 
perity and in population is evident to every one who has watched the 
progress of the city in the past. The number of directory names given 
in Part II of this work indicates a population of fully 10,000 in River- 
side, including East and West Riverside, and which leaves fully 8500 
for the city proper. The continued increase in the number of citrus 
trees in bearing and of those planted out, as well as the wonderful in- 
crease of shipments of oranges, all point to the fact that the growth of 
Riverside has never been more phenomenal than it is at present. 

Another unmistakable indication of the increase of the population 
is to be found in the incessant calls of the educational department for 
more facilities for the children. No sooner is the want of school facili- 
ties supplied in one part of the city than there is a call for a new build- 
ing or a greater seating capacity in another. 

And although we defer any allusion to the gain the city has made 
as the county seat of the new count\% yet it is apparent that as an ele- 
ment of growth there has never been an event in its history fraught 
with more substantial advantages than this last triumph of Riverside. 
In the Chapter on Riverside County, we hope to make this apparent. 



CHAPTER YI. 



THE SANTA FE RAILROAD. 



It was not till Monday, the 22d of March, 1886, that the people of 
Riverside heard the long-hoped-for and the welcome scream of the lo- 
comotive at their very doors. It had been a long, tedious wait, and at

times it looked as though the fates aii.l tlu- railroa.l companies were 

combined to blij^ht the hopes of every one in the town. But the end 

came at last and the peopk- .yave the opening road a splendid greetinji. 

We copy a portion of an clilorial from the IlorlirulUnist of the 27lh 




KITE-SHAPED TR.\CK, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA (SANTA FE) SYSTEM. 



of March, iS86, in reference to the opening of the road, as expressing 
tlie feelings of the citizens of Riverside on the subject: 

••The formal opening of the road to pas.senger Irathc is an event 
that shoul.l be hailed with pleasure by every cili/.en, not only for the 



30 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

mone}- value it adds to our property, but for the <^reat convenience it 
affords to the traveling; public. The California Southern, in connection 
with the great Atchison and Santa Fe route, has been of incalculable 
benefit to this city in the building of this line and should receive the 
thanks of every citizen for thus looking after their welfare. 

" Riverside is now^ in close connection with the rest of the world, 
and we should be correspondingly happy." 

We make a further brief extract from the same paper of April 3 in 
the same 3'ear, as follows: 

" A short time since fruit had to be hauled from six to fifteen miles 
for shipment. Today the railroad has penetrated the very heart of the 
city and there are two stations where fruit may l)e loaded directly into 
the cars. Freight rates on oranges have been reduced $60 per carload 
since last season. Money is flowing into Riverside as it never did be- 
fore, business and building operations are on the rapid increase, and 
prosperity is stamped upon every countenance." 

We have now followed the fortunes of Riverside step by step until 
we see the " great civilizer " casting its influence over the place and in- 
augurating an era of prosperity and confidence. 

It may be profitable for a moment to take a review of the condition 
of tilings just previous to the events we have here spoken of. and see 
whether or not we can trace the miglitj^ changes that came over South- 
ern California to au}^ great extent to any other source than to the ad- 
vent of the capital that built the roads and to the influence the roads 
themselves exerted on trade and agriculture. 

In 1882 L,os Angeles was a distributing point for supplies for the 
grazers, sheep raisers and large ranchers. Its trade was principally in 
retailing the products of Eastern manufacturers and in the gathering 
and shipping of hides, wool and grain from the poor farmers of the 
valleys and Spanish grants. The population of Los Angeles at this 
time may have been 10,000 or 12,000. 

San Bernardino was then a small, insignificant Mormon village. 
Pasadena was a winter resort known as the " Indiana Colony," 
with a very few settlers and no attractions except climate. 

San Diego was a small trading point, with a population not exceed- 
ing 4000; having, however, a good outlook for the future, as the Califor- 
nia Southern was then building northward to form a connection with 
the Southern Pacific at Colton. 

And what of Riverside in those days ? Those who were here strug- 
gling against all manner of adverse circumstances can best testif)'. And 
the want of railroad connections with the oittside world was one of the 
heaviest drawbacks with which the people had to contend. 

But when it was understood that behind the California Southern 
the Atchison company was secretly and generously supplying the nec- 
essary capital to build the road from San Diego, a thrill of confidence 
and a wave of prosperity for the first time rolled over Southern Califor- 
nia, and the people of Riverside caught the enthusiasm and at once 
prepared to appropriate the blessings that were so soon to follow. 

Capitalists soon saw the advantages and eagerl}- seized upon the 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1S93-4. 31 

opporlunitics affonleil by the then limited exjieriiiieiits in irrij^alion in 
Riverside, wisely decidinj^ that witli more money more water could be 
liad, and as alread}' enough was known to assure any sensible man that 
water was all that was needed to secure abundant returns for whatever 
investments were made; this impidse given by the coming upon the 
scene of the great benefactors of Southern California, the Atchison men 
with their capital, was in reality the starting point of the prosperity of 
the country. 

The scope of this article will not permit of our following either the 
work of railroad building or the progress of the country', which have 
been so intimately connected that no one can separate them, but the 
story is best tolil by a trip over the "Kite-Shaped Track," as it is 
called, an illustration of wliich is here presented to our readers. See 
the ])opulous cities and the thriving towns — see the immense orange and 
lemon groves — the broad acres of deciduous fruits — the great stretches 
of country devoted to alfalfa and barley and wheat — the vegetable pro- 
duct required for these teeiiiing cities and towns. These are the best 
references we can give as an answer to the query, " What has the Santa 
Fe done for Southern California ? " Indeed, we may rather ask, "What 
has this great company not done for Southern California ? " 

The Santa Fe is a company of progressive men, and fortunate in- 
deed has Southern California been in the selection made by that com- 
pany of men for the management of this end of their great system. 
With very few exceptions the men sent here have worked for the good 
of the country as indefatigably as they have for the interests of their 
company, and even in the few instances where this was not the case 
they were speedily replaced by men of broader views and more accept- 
able to our people. 

In the recent death of Mr. Manvel, the president of the road, this 
place sustained a heavy loss; but as Mr. Reinhardt, the new president, 
has left to California the same able corps of managers as there was 
here previous to his taking office, we have no cause to find fault. We 
believe only one important change in the management has been made, 
and as that was not a removal, but a promotion, it has not affected us 
unfavorably. S. B. Hynes was placed iu charge of the freight depart- 
ment, a position which by training and education he was best fitted for 
and which he was promised when he came to California, and the pas- 
senger department given to l\r. H. G. Thompson, a gentleman well ac- 
quainted with the wants of this Coast and fulh- imbued with a desire 
for its growth and prosperity; the general management still remaining 
in that splendid business man and substantial friend of Southern Cali- 
fornia, K. II. Wade, than whom there is not a better friend to our 
Southern country living. 

The Santa Fe company has expended more than twenty millions 
of dollars in completing and equipping its California roads. What cap- 
italists have ever shown such confidence in this country as that ? Other 
roads and other enterprises stand ready with their millions, as soon as

we can guarantee them a profitable in\e.stinent and a paying business, 
but tliis conipau}' comes with its millions and opens up a new countr}^, 
and waits until a return comes to its immense investments, and often 
and often waiting long before it comes. 

The road has never fooled our people with promises of lines which 
it never built. Take all the many branches of this great system and 
when once it has been decided to act, see how speedily the road was 
put in operation. Instance the branch lines to San Jacinto, Escondido, 
Redlands, etc., etc.

SANTA ANA CANYON, SANTA FE COAST 



Some of the most beautiful scenery in the world can be enjoyed by 
a ride over the Santa Fe line in Southern California, notably over the 
road from Riverside to San Diego, along the coast line, through the 
Santa Ana Canyon and along the shores of the Pacific Ocean, wliere 
the magnificent surf of the ever-heaving waves all but reach the car 
wheels as thej' dash along over the most fascinating piece of road to be 
found in America. 

Then taking the kite-shaped track before referred to, a finer or 
more enchanting ride is not to be had anywhere. The beautiful "pan- 
orama train" makes the round trip each wa}' daih'. Our illustration 
shows this train at the Highland Station, aljout twenty miles from Riv- 
erside. 

From a rate of $100, fares have been reduced till one can reach 
Kansas City in three daj's' time for $40. 

()ranges, that in 1S84 cost $400 per car-load to Kansas City, are now- 
carried for $250 per car-load of 20,000 lbs, and these figures will no

HIGHLAND STATION, SANTA H K RAILROAD. 



Notwithstanding all that has been done in the way of affording the 
diffe'rent sections of Riverside county facilities of travel and freight 
accommodation, there are yet many points to be reached that we have 
no doubt the Santa l-'e Route wiir yet cover. But although railroads, 
like individuals, have to use caution and good judgment m their ex- 
penditures, vet we hope the time is not far distant when the mauage- 
Inent of this enterprising road will see its way clear to connect again 
the towns in the Teuiecula Valley with San Diego, either hrough tall 
Brook, the old route, or some other way. for such an outlet wouUl be 
the best means of building up in population and wealth the towns of 
Elsiiiore, Wildomar, Murrieta and Temecula, an<l the vast tracts of fine 
fruit and grain lands that surround them. 

Further the new and prosperous community at and surrounding 
the town of Moreno will ere long un.loul)tedly be brought into railroad 
connection with the main line, for this fast-growing community can ,1 
afford to do without the "great civili/.er." the railroad, in their mulsl. 



36 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

Then when the Santa Fe shall see it to its interest and to the gen- 
eral good, a line from Elsinore through the Temescal Valley to South 
Riverside will seem to complete all that Riverside county will need for 
some vears to come. 



CHAPTER VII. 

EDUCATION — ITS STEADY AND RAPID GROWTH IN RIVERSIDE. 

No other element of organized society contributes more to the 
prosperity of a people than does liberal provision for the education of 
its j'outh. The pioneers of Riverside were enterprising, having come 
from centers of culture and being determined upon an enduring pros- 
perity in the city and valley of their adoption, they wisely deemed the 
proper foundation for the welfare of the public school to be paramount 
in importance. Hence it was that one of the first acts of the Southern 
California Colony Association was to present to the community an en- 
tire block as spacious grounds on which to locate the school house. 
This original grant~ of two and one-half acres is now the handsome 
square on which stands the large Sixth-street school building. 

On this piece of ground the earliest settlers erected a plain one- 
room building, and Mr. L. C. Waite, as the first teacher, called to order 
the few children who assembled for instruction. B}- the rapid growth 
of the town it was but a short time until the building was wholly in- 
sufficient to accommodate the demands, and a second structure of simi- 
lar capacity was added. The school building on Brockton avenue, and 
the Arlington district school house, were also demanded and built 
within a few years. Riverside had so grown during the first ten years, 
that, by the spring of iS8i, the two houses on Sixth street and the 
Brockton school accommodated together about 150 pupils, divided into 
two primary and one grammar school, with more children in attendance 
than the seating capacity would admit. 

Overrun with pupils, the people of the city voted the necessar\- 
means for erecting the large two-story Sixth-street building, which 
house continues to torm a part of the structure as it now stands. This 
was a large, fine edifice, costing about $10,000. Its provisions were so 
ample that the two older buildings were sold and moved away, one to 
become the Universalist chapel at the corner of Market and Seventh 
(since used as a carriage shop), the other to become the blacksmith 
shop on the southeast corner of Eighth and Orange streets; the former 
of these was the first school house of Riverside. The large new build- 
ing was completed and dedicated in the autumn of 1882, and the schools 
took on a proportion in size and a degree of system of organization 
commensurate with the wonderful growth of the city as an important 
center of business and culture in Southern California. 

The remarkable development of the city witliin the Riverside

school district continued, and scarcely were the grades well arranged 
in the large building before demands arose for more room. The classes 
had advanced to the stage at which high school privileges were re- 
quired. Still larger and more costly buildings must now be erected. 
By reason of this necessity and the greatly increased wealth of the city, 
the trustees, supported by the people, moved on to select a site and to 
erect the required high school building. Six acres of land were se- 
cured on Fourteenth street for ample grounds and the plans accepted 
for a substantial and imposing building, embodying all improved con- 
veniences for school purposes. This edifice as now completed is justh- 
the pride of Riverside. By its superior appointments it gave fresh im- 
pulse to improve the conditions for the organization and development 
of school work, especially in the higher grades, including a complete 
high school course. 

Before the high school building was completed, however, the 
growth of the city on the East Side demanded a separate school build- 
ing in that section, whereupon the ground was secured and the Seventh- 
street school building erected. Increase of population in the center of 
the city required the enlargement of the Sixth-street house to double 
its original capacity, and the rapid settlement of Hall's Addition ne- 
cessitated the location and erection of the handsome two-story, four- 
room building which now ornaments the high ground of that region 
and receives the school children of that vicinity. 

With this remarkable liberality in providing for the accommoda- 
tion of the schools within the limits of Riverside school district, the 
near future must see still other edifices erected and equipped for school 
service. Every available school room is now occupied and au}- mate- 
rial increase in population will crowd the attendance beyond what is 
convenient and healthful. 

The number of teachers employed in the schools of the city are : 
Victoria district, i ; Magnolia district, 2 ; Arlington district, 3 ; River- 
side district, 25 ; total for the city, 31. 

The school census shows the following number of school children 
for the first four years :

Riverside .' 863 1007 10.H4 1158 

Totals for the City 1076 1284 1356 1429 

The city of Riverside takes just pride in the liberal and substantial 
provision she has made for her common schools, of both an elementary 
and a higher grade, and in the efficiency of the excellent system of in- 
struction and discipline which such liberality sustains. 

Large sums of money have been employed in all the districts of the 
city ill erecting substantial school buildings, which are handsome mod- 
els of modern architecture, surrounded by ample grounds, and equipped 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. 39 

with every acconiinodation required for the comfort of the cliildren. 
As an evidence of the generous policy of the city in providing buihliiigs 
for the common schools, it is proper to state that within the past five 
years the imposing Fourteenth-street building has been erecte<l and 
completed at a cost of ^75,000, the new Thirteenth-street building at 
f 25, 000, the enlarged Sixth-street building at 120,000, the Arlington 
building at :f75oo, the Magnolia building at $5000, the Victoria building 
at I6500, the Kast Riverside building (an outlying district) at $15,000, 
making, with other buildings, an expenditure of about $150,000 for 
school houses. 

The liberal policy of the officers of the schools in providing so gen- 
erously for the needs of the community in suitable buildings, is no less 
evident in their wisdom in paying such liberal slaries to teachers as 
enables the city of Riverside to command and retain an accomplished 
corps of instructors for the schools. It is the teacher's character that 
determines the qualit}- of the school — the best teacher makes the best 
school. The Trustees realize this truth in its full force, and therefore 
they select and retain the teachers solely upon their merit as successful 
instructors and competent disciplinarians. Probably in no other corps 
is there a larger proportion of able workers than among the teachers in 
charge of the schools of Riverside. 

The system of instruction and discipline is under the charge of 
Superintendent Eli F. Brown, who devotes his entire time and energv 
to this line of duty, and whose long and successful experience in school 
management places the administration of the schools on the highest 
grounds of efficiency. The methods of conducting the schools are 
thoroughly rational and progressive, adopting the best of modern ideas 
and conserving the good ways that have been well established by past 
experience. 

Prominent attention is given to the work of the earliest years in 
the child's school life, in order that the groundwork of scholarship and 
correct habit may be established. This primary instruction includes 
the most practical training in the art of reading, in legible writing, in 
ready and correct computation in numbers, in correct use of language, 
in the elements of geograph}-, and in music and drawing. 

In the intermediate grade, the training is of such a nature as best 
fits the pupils for passing on into the work of the high school, at the 
same time that it prepares for business and social life, as best it can, 
those who are so unfortunate in their career as to be compelled to drop 
out of school earl)- to help at home or to enter upon some remunerative 
vocation. This instruction includes the cultivation of a taste for good 
literature, training in Knglish grammar, in commercial and physical 
geography, in physiology and hygiene, in United States history, in bus- 
iness arithmetic and correspondence, with further instruction in music 
and drawing. 

The system of city schools, after an eight-years' course in the pri- 
mary and grammar grades, is capped by a complete high school course

supplied" with apparatus for chemical and physical experimentation. 
The courses of study in the hi^h school are three in number, each ex- 
tending through four years of study: The English, the scientific , the 
classical These three courses giye suflicient latitude of selection to 
meet the wants of all students, and so efficient is the traininj^ j^uen m 
each that the j^raduates therefrom enter, without examination, the 
Uniyersity of California at Berkeley; in like manner they are prepared 
to enter anv of the higher institutions of the East. The btate Uniyer- 
sity ranks the Riyerside High School among the best of accredited in- 
sti'tutions for fitting students for entering its courses of higher learning 
The chief worth of the high school, howeyer, is found in the fact that 
it affords to the young men and women who do not seek further educa- 
tion such training in the higher mathematics, history, science and lit- 
erature as fits them for life in the cultured community of which they 
become active men and women after leaving school. 

The schools of Riverside are conducted throughout upon the sound 
policy that the schools are for the children; the schools are their 
schools and their pride; that the schools are for the life training of the 
mioils By every instrumentality the children are imbued with loyalty 
to school duties ;nd conformity to right conduct, since the best citizen- 
■ ship within the school prepares for the best citizenship in the republic 
of men and women. . 

Coupled with the development of the school interests of Riverside 
^nd the wise and liberal policy pursued in provi.ling such substantial 
foundation for their permanent welfare, many names of leading citizen.. 
deserve creditable mention. Perhaps no one else is more fully entit ed 
to note in this regard than Mr. E. W. Holmes, who for the past twelve 
venrs has been the active member of the Board of School Trustees of 
Riverside district. Mr. Holmes has been faithful to his duty, careful in 
the business affairs of the Boanl, capable in seeing the needs of the 
>^rowing system of schools, the friend of the teacher, and the devoted 
patron of good schools. In later yenrs the Rev. Mr. Deere has held his 
shoulder to the wheel of .school progress with a force that has to d 
ureatlv for tlie welfare of the cau.se of education in Riverside. Dr 
Deere'is a man of broad scholarship, of philanthropic motive and of 
.V.holic spirit, hence his bearing upon local school interests has tended 
to harmonize and inspire. Mr. A. H. Naftzger, the remaining member 
of the present Hoard, is alike devoted to the best interests of higher 
educational lacilities in Riverside, and, by his quick, sure judgment o 
the needs of the hour, adds a decisive element in the right management

of afT;iirs that enhances greatly tlie forces that guide the interests of 
tlie scliools. 

Fortunate it is for Riverside county that, in the finely-organized 
schools of the county seat, is to be found a safe leadership; that within 
lier limits is established a high school which has had four years of suc- 
cessful operation, and which has reached such a size as to enable it to 
employ a corps of special teachers for its departments, thus putting 
within easy reach of all facilities for higher learning equal in every 
way to the best modern college. 

Throughout the State the city school system of Riverside ranks 
among the best, and the State Universit}' places the Riverside High 
School among the first of accredited institutions for fitting students to 
enter that institution. 



CHAPTER VIII. 



ARLINGTON HEIGHTS. 



Allusion has been made in a number of instances to this magnifi- 
cent tract of land in the earlier part of this work. It is now nearly 
twelve years since the plan was conceived by that master mind, Mat- 
thew Gage, of procuring water for the lands lying between the River- 
side upper canal and the foothills to the east and extending from the 
Santa Ana River bluff on the north nearly to the Temescal Wash on 
the south, comprising vipwards of 10,000 acres. 

Through many difficulties and miich anverse criticism work was 
inaugurated and on the loth of November, 1886, the canal was com- 
])leted a distance of twelve miles and water was delivered at the Arroyo 
Terquisquite. Since that date and prior to March, 1890, water rights 
for 4000 acres of land in East Riverside were sold. 

In the year 1888 the canal was completed a further distance often 
miles and water was delivered on the lands now known as Arlington 
Heights. 

In 1889 The Riverside Trust Company, Liniited, was organized, 
its head office being in London. The company representing abundance 
of capital bought the canal, Arlington Heights and the tract in the San 
Bernardino Valley known as the Victoria Tract, in all some 7500 acres. 

This is undoubtedly the best managed water system we have in 
Riverside, as it has given most perfect satisfaction to the numerous 
owners of some 5000 acres of planted lands under the flow of its waters. 

The title to all water and shares of stock representing water is de- 
livered free from all encumbrances, assessments or charges of any kind. 

The company and residents together have now upwards of 2000 
acres of this fine tract in orange and lemon trees and for healthfulness 
and rapid growth no better showing is made in the great citrus valley. 
Many of these trees will be in bearing the coming season.

4.4 HISTORY AND DIRp:CTORY OF 

Arlington Heights lands are being sold only to desirable people, 
who bind themselves to improve the property immediately. The Trust 
Company has already sold looo acres of this land, and there are now, 
including its own planted lands, some 2000 acres of tliriving orange 
and lemon groves on the tract, some of which they are offering for sale 
at reasonable prices and on easy terms. Regular terms are one-fourth 
cash, the balance secured by mortgage and payable in five years, with 
interest at eight per cent. The mortgage provides that payment in full, 
or in sums of one thousand dollars or more, may be made at any time. 

The Victoria school, illustrated on page 40, is on this elegant tract, 
where everv convenience and attraction to make a happy, pleasant 
home is to be found. 

The beautiful cut in this arricle represents the artesian wells be- 
longing to the Riverside Trust Company, Limited, at the source of the 
water supply. 

The office of the company is at the corner of Main and Ninth 
streets, Riverside, Rowell block, where particulars will be cheerfully 
given.

SOME BIOGRAPHICAI, SKETCHES. 

The following biographical sketches of a few of our leading 
men, whose lives have not heretofore been so prominently before the 
public, will be found interesting as giving the history of Riverside more 
from their standpoints than from our own, because in taking the dicta' 
tion in reference to the events recorded w'e have followed their recollec- 
tion of the events and have so given them here. 

These sketches, although differing in some minor points, taken to- 
gether afford strong concurrent testimony to the facts given in the 
earlier chapters of this l)ook. 

Judge E. Q. Brown. 

In the winter of 1869-70 the Hon. J. W. North, late of Knoxville, 
Tenn., issued a circular outlining a scheme to colonize lands in South- 
ern California, the cardinal features of which were the growing of citrus 
and semi-tropical fruits and the hope of interesting a superior class of 
people, making the occupation and social features of the enterprise 
equally attractive. E. G. Brown first saw this circular in the Belle 
Plaine Union, then edited by :Mr. :.Iarsh, an old friend and acquaint- 
ance of Judge North. He knew him in Northfield, Minn., which flour- 
ishing town was founded b}' Judge North. After consulting v.illi Mr. 
Marsh, he opened a correspondence with Judge North, which resulted 
in an earnest appeal to accompany him to his prospective El Dorado, 
as he desired his judgment in selecting the best the country afforded.

46 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

In spite of financial reverses it was ultimately arranged, and he joined 
the Judge at Omaha, arriving in San Francisco early in May. After a 
brief stay they started down the coast, dulj' admonished by those who 
knew of their scheme "that it was a verj- foolhardy thing." Starting 
southward, they spent two days looking at the Santa Clara Valley, then 
on to Gilroy, where they separated; Judge North returning to take a 
steamship to Wilmington and Mr. Brown taking the stage for Los An- 
geles via Santa Barbara. Here he paused two days, meeting many of 
the prominent citizens, who showed him the best of their charming 
surroundings; then to Los Angeles, arriving the 17th of May. During 
the day the steamer passengers arrived, and besides Judge North there 
came Dr. Jas. P. Greves, Dr. Sanford Eastman, A. J. Twogood and Wm. 
Schuyler, all intent upon making a careful investigation of Southern 
California. 

Five weeks were spent examining ranch after ranch, and the condi- 
tions under which the best results had obtained. There were a few 
orange groves then and a number of vineyards, but the one great fact 
was everywhere apparent : Land was not wanting, but water was — water 
in sufficient quantities and in available places. After two or three 
weeks of profitless search Judge North returned to San Francisco, and 
after four weeks A. J. Twogood returned to Iowa, without any definite 
results having been obtained. While waiting in uncertainty Mr. Brown 
was approached by the owners of " The Silk Center Association," who 
owned the original Riverside site, and on the 23d of June, in company 
with Dr. Greves, Brink and Holmes, drove from Los Angeles to San 
Bernardino. On the 24th. accompanied by Jas. Stuart and Dudley Pine, 
they drove down over what was then a desert, and is now the garden 
spot of California. Judge Brown was greatl)' charmed with all it prom- 
ised, and said at once, "this is the finest and most desirable spot we 
have visited;" and after satisf3'ing himself that there was no more dan- 
ger from frost than where he had seen oranges growing, he was ready 
to say, " here will I dwell." He wrote at once to North, telling him 
of the happy discovery and urging him to come and see it ; but Judge 
North evidently shared the feeling of the Los Angeles people, or had 
acquired their prejudice, that nothing good could come out of San Ber- 
nardino count}' ; that colonists could not be induced to go so far from 
everywhere; and hesitated to accept the choice. Mr. Brown, however, 
could not relinquish it. First and foremost of the attractions was the 
dry and balm}' air, so different and so much more enjoyable than that 
experienced at Los Angeles and places near the coast, and which has 
proved such a blessing to the orchards as well as to delicate lungs. He 
saw the beautiful plain, so smooth and admirably adapted to irrigation; 
lie saw twice as much water in the Santa Ana as he had seen elsewhere; 
he saw the beautiful surroundings of mountain and plain, and, with the 
courageous eye of faith, he saw the future greatness of the embryo col- 
ony, the beautiful homes, vineyards, orchards and avenues, where was 
then the undisputed home of the coyote and jack rabbit. 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. 4-7 

lie at once returned to Iowa in the hope that, if Judj^e North did 
not withdraw liis refusal to consider this site, he might induce otliers 
to undertake the enterjjrise. He arrived in Belle IMaine on the lotli of 
July, having been absent over two months. He brought with him 
specimens of fruit and grain showing the extreme excellence of both, 
and such enthusiastic accounts of the grand possibilities that he inter- 
ested his fellow townsmen, A. J. and I). C. Twogood, James II. Roe. L. 
C. Waite, Dr. K. I). Shugart and others sufficiently to induce them to 
cast in their lot with the new colony. Dr. Shugart, like a careful busi- 
ness man, decided to go out and .see for him.self if that particular loca- 
tion pos.sessed all the advantages claimed for it. His immediate return 
for his family was the best indorsement of Mr. Brown's judgment. 
Meanwhile, correspondence had been kept up with Judge North, an<l 
the most important indorsement was the fact that, after nearly two 
months, the Judge decided to go down and look at it, taking with him 
the capitalist, C. N. Felton, and his brother-in-law, Mr. Luther. "See- 
ing was believing," and the purchase of the largest share of the Silk 
Center Association was immediately made. 

Such was the inception of Judge North's original colonization 
scheme, and the subsequent progress and success of the enterprise re- 
flect the greatest credit upon its founder, Judge North, and upon E. G. 
Brown, the one to whose persistent effort is due the selection of this 
almost world-renowned locality. He was not an original stockholder, 
owing to the financial reverses before alluded to. In the following May 
he returned to settle, to make a new home in a new country, and at 
that time he was fifty years old. His property, " The Anchorage," is a 
monument to the work he has wrought, and its beautiful surroundings 
are an eloquent testimonial to his taste and untiring industry and en- 
ergy, as the difficulties and obstacles of a pioneer life, without money, 
were innumerable. He points with pardonable pride to the finest spec- 
imens of pepper, walnut and fig trees in Southern California, these and 
all the trees upon his place being raised from the .seed by himself, an 
incident in the difficult path of improving land without capital. 



K. D. Shugart, H. D. 

The accompanying portrait is a good likeness of one of Riverside's 
pioneers and best-known citizens. From the day when, with his own 
hands, he set out the first young orange tree ever planted within what 
is now the greatest expanse of orange groves on earth, there has l)een 
no time when his fatniliar form has not been on our streets, and during 
all the history of the past there has not been a man more thoroughly 
alive to the best interests of Riverside than has been the subject of this 
sketch — Dr. K. D. Shugart. .\nd although the pioneers of Riverside 
are fast passing over to the great majority, the Doctor is still among us 
— still at the head of an honorable profession — still coun.selling and

working for the welfare and prosperity of the cit}- and county he has 
so faithfully assisted in building. 

Dr. .Sliugart is a native of Randolph county, Indiana, where he was 
born in 1829. In his thirteenth year he removed with his parents to 
Cass county, Michigan. Here he received a good English education 
and laid the foundation for that life of industry, study and visefulness 
that has characterized him through liis career and has made him the 
useful member of society he has proved to this, his adopted home. 

In his new home in Michigan he commenced reading medicine un- 
der that eminent medical practitioner, Dr. E. J. Bonine, who made so 
grand a record for himself as surgeon in the army during the War of the 
Rebellion. After taking a full course of stud}' Dr. Shugart commenced 
practicing medicine, and from the first attained a place of distinction 
as a physician and suTgeon. 




DR. K. U. SHUGART. 



In 1852 he was married to Miss Martha T. Reams, of Cass count}-, 
Mich., and for over forty years this happy companionship has contin- 
ued. Two children were born to them ; the eldest, Lilian Moina, born 
on the 5th April, 1856, in Iowa, now the wife of our esteemed towns- 
man, L. C. Waite, Esq. The second, Deila Rosalia, born Sept. 8, 1857, 
and died unmarried in California in 1872. 

In 1853 the young doctor and his pretty wife removed to Iowa, 
where he took a regular course of instruction in medicine and surgery 
in the Iowa Medical College at Keokuk. 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. 49 

Diirinj4 the early '60s tlie Doctor was eiigaj^ed in the practice of his 
profession in Iowa. Here he fomul time to slutly inineraloj^y and assay- 
ing, and soon became interested in mining. By the way, the Doctor 
has still a strong leaning that way, ami at present owns some of the 
richest mining properly in this part of the Golden State, which, if he 
is not very careful, may yet land him in a millionaire's grave; and, in 
our judgment, it will serve him right, provided he has enough time to 
enjoy it ))efore he gels landc<l as aforesai<l. 

CALIFORNIA IN THK DISTANCi;. 

The failing health of Mrs. vShugarl and his daughter, and the ex- 
cessively cold winters of the Northwest, gave the Doctor an inclination 
to seek a more congenial and healthful home. Some letters from Rev. 
T. Starr King, then being published, induced him to first fix his mind 
on California. So that when, in iS69,the circular issued at Belle Plaine, 
Iowa, by J. W. North (a copy of which is published in the second chap- 
ter of this book), met his eye, it did not require nmch persuasion to 
induce him to unite his lot with the brave men who were then prepar- 
ing to come to California to organize a fruit-growing colon}-. 

Harlv in 1S70 the Doctor associated himself with a few men whose 
names are familiar in Southern California, and formed the Southern 
California Colony Association. With the fortunes and misfortunes of 
this excellent organization Dr. Shugart has always been fully identified. 
He was treasurer of the association in 1S70 and 1S71, and afterward its 
vice-president, and up to the hour when the organization sold out to 
the Riverside Land and Irrigating Company in 1S75, no one was more 
active or more zealous in making known llie advantages of the colony, 
or in developing the water supply, constructing irrigating canals, etc., 
than he. Tlie Doctor's participation in the growth and prosperity of 
Riverside need not l»e noted here, as they are already given in a pre- 
ceding chapter on the early history of Riverside. 

The Doctor's first home was on Ninth street between ^Mulberry and 
Lime. From there, however, he removed in 1S75 to his present elegant 
residence on First street at the head of Mulberry street, where he has 
one of the handsomest places in the city. Here with his wife he has 
resided nearly twenty years, enjoying, as it is not often given to men to 
enjov, the luxuries of a happy home, a full pocket and a conlente<l 
mind. His onlv child being his next neighbor, Mrs. Waite, in the ele- 
gant and almost palatial residence of L. C. Waite, Elsq., her husband. 

In the earlv davs of Riversifle Dr. Shugart took a leading i)art in 
educational matters, b.)th in the way of organizing school districts and 
as school trustee. 

In politics the Doctor has been a Republican ever since the organi- 
zation of the party in 1S56, and has been a worker in its ranks and a 
delegate to many of its conventions. In 1876 he was chairman of the 
Counlv Convention. 



50 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

lie was the first to urge the organization of a Universalist church 
in Riverside, and was one of the first trustees of the society. He is 
still an earnest worker in the society, having long been a member of 
that body. 

He has been a member of the Masonic fraternity for many years 
and is a charter member of Evergreen Lodge No. 259, A. F. and A. M., 
Riverside Chapter No. 67, R. A. M., and Riverside Commandery No. 28, 
K. T. He is a member of the American Medical Association, Califor- 
"nia State Medical'Society, Southern California Medical Society, and ex- 
president of the San Bernardino Medical Society; this latter owes its 
organization to Dr. Shugart and Dr. Fox, of Colton. 

As a citizen Dr. Shugart is broad, philanthropic and public spirited. 
As a physician he is quick to act, tender of his patients' feelings, and 
never loses a case where skill and care can save it. As a friend he is 
true as steel, and as a consequence few men have as many friends and 
as true friends as he. It may be said of him truthfully, he never loses 
a friend. 

Thos. W. Cover. 

One of the earliest settlers, and perhaps the very first of all the 
"Riverside pioneers" who ever set foot on the soil of Riverside, was 
the gentleman named at the head of this sketch and whose portrait ap- 
pears herewith. Of all the men whose history figures in the foregoing 
chapters, Thomas W. Cover is the only one who claims to have been 
here in the year 1869. In the closing months of that year the Califor- 
nia Silk Center Association was formed in Los Angeles, and on the 19th 
of" November Messrs. Provost and Cover, accompanied, perhaps, by 
Messrs. Pine, Stewart or Linden, came to Riverside and bought of Luis 
Rubidoux six-tenths of his ranch. This visit antedated by ten months 
the arrival of Judge Brown, Dr. Shugart or Judge North upon the 
grounds. 

Mr. Cover did not remain here then any longer than was necessary 
to consummate the purchase of the property, but returned to Los An- 
geles, where his business then was and where his family resided. 

Mr. Provost was the only one in the colony who understood the 
silk business, but such confidence did he repose in the splendid business 
qualifications of Mr. Cover that, during his absence in San Francisco, 
where he went to make arrangements for the purchase of a large tract 
of contiguous government land, the whole matter of the Silk Colony 
was placed in Mr. Cover's hands. 

But, alas for the instability of human plans and of human life, Mr. 
Provost never returned. He was taken sick and died, thus leaving the 
California Silk Center Association without any head. 

It did not take the remaining members of that colony long to de- 
cide that the wisest thing for them to do was to get rid of the land and 
let the whole thing drop, even at a heavy pecuniary loss. Think of the

j^olden prize these few men held in their hands, and at so small a figure, 
too; and yet it fairly burned tlit-ir fingers until tliey had got rid of it. 

Mr. Cover was ein])<)wered to sell the land for tlie coin])any, and as 
the very first opportunity he had to do so was to some sjieculators then 
here from Iowa looking for land on which to locate a fruit colony, he 
approached Judge K. G. Brown and made the offer to sell his company's 
lands to him for the fruit colony. This sale was consummated on tlie 
13th Septemljer, 1S70. 

Like a wise man, Mr. Cover saw enough of the advantages of the 
tract he had just sold to desire to be a sharer in the fine prospects he 




THOS. W. COVKR. 



the directors recognized in Mr. Cover the proper man for the most im- 
portant position, and the one on the correct and judicious management 
of which depended the .success of the enterpri.se. We are informed bv 
the records of the first meeting of the directors of the Southern Cali- 
was satisfied existed for the fruit colony, so lie took stock in the latter 
as he hail previously done in the former. 

Wlien the Southern California Colony Association was organized, 
fornia Colony Association, that Thos. W. Cover was appointed superin- 
tendent of canal construction. And the history of the colony shows 
that lie immediately entered on the discharge of his duties, and that l)y 
June, iSji.it was completed and tlie water flowing into the town. Con- 



52 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

sidering all the obstacles that had to be overcome, and the distance of 
eight miles of canal to be constructed in nine mouths, this was certainly 
expeditious work, and when the water arrived the joy of the colonists 
knew no bounds. Those who had planted out trees were compelled, up 
to that date, to have water hauled in barrels at twenty-five cents a bar- 
rel to keep their trees alive. 

Mr. Cover was born in Westminster, Maryland, on the 31st of 
March, 1831, on the old family plantation. Here he lived with his 
parents until he was 14 years of age ; then the family moved to Belle- 
ville, Ohio, where he supplemented the common school education he 
had received in his native town by attending the Mount Vernon Insti- 
tute, where he gained a very thorough business and general education 
that fitted him so well for the responsible duties of his subsequent life. 

For several years he was engaged with varying success in stock and 
quartz-mine speculations, both in the United States and Mexico. On 
the whole, however, he was so successful that in 1865, when he married 
Miss Mary E. Hess, daughter of Judge J. D. Hess, of Columbus, Ohio, 
he was reputed to be wealthy. Hence, when in 1868 he and his young 
wife decided on coming to California, he was able to invest in the lands 
of the Silk Center Association first and the Southern California Colony 
Association afterward. 

Immediately following the completion of the work on the canal he 
bought a relinquishment on a government claim of eighty acres, which 
is now near the center of the city, being between Palm and Brockton 
avenues and between Central and Jurupa avenues. Here, perhaps, 
more than in any other place, we get a glimpse of Mr. Cover's charac- 
ter in its truest light and under most favorable circumstances. 

That he was industrious, the rapid, almost miraculous, strides made 
in the development of that elegant tract testify Ijetter than anything 
we could write. 

That he had an aniljition to place his family on a par with any 
other family in the colony, may be seen from the elegant mansion 
erected for their use, costing from ten to twelve thousand dollars. 

That he was a loving husband and a tender father, the manner in 
which his memory is cherished by both wife and children is abundant 
evidence. 

That he was generous in ever}' fiber of his being ; free to forgive 
those who injured him ; a true friend ; a man who had very few ene- 
mies and beloved b}- all who knew him, is the concurrent testimony of 
his associates and neighbors. 

On the 5th September, 1S83, in company with a friend, he went out 
on a hunting and prospecting tour, expecting to be gone "a week or ten 
days." But when he "Dade his family good-b)'e, how little he or 
they could forsee the sad truth! He never returned. His fate is a 
mystery, but in some way he met his death out in the mountains; as to 
how or where all is conjecture, and in that we do not desire to engage. 

He left his family comfortably provided for and an insurance policy 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. 53 

inatle fur his wife's beiiefu; and because the exact hour of his deatli 
and the exact spot cannot be proved, it must be said, to tlie eternal dis- 
j^race of the company tliat for ten lonj;; years has liehl the widow's and 
tlie orphans' money from lliem, that tliat insurance money has never 
been paid to tliis day. 

Tlie tract of rough, uncultivated land taken by Mr. Cover had be- 
come a magniticent and very valualile orange grove, and his skill as a 
fruit raiser was amjjly demonstrated before his untimely and unfortun- 
ate death. " For four years theieafter did ]Mrs. Cover labor on alone as 
she had done with her husband, improving and beautifying her lovely 
home. In 1887 she sold the eighty-acre tract and all its improvements 
and .sacred recollections, and removed to her present elegant place on 
Vine street, where, in the possession of a comfortable and ample in- 
come, and until lately in the enjoyment of the society of her accom- 
jilished daughters, who are now both married, she reaps the reward of 
the industry of her own hands and of the good management of one who 
is with her no more. 

Cornelius Jensen. 

It may indeed be said of the gentleman whose name heads this 
sketch that lie was a " Father of his Country," for more than any other 
man he first built up San Bernanlino cit)', then the county. Dating far 
back into the '50s, Mr. Jensen came to San Bernardino countv and set- 
tled at Agua Mansa, about a mile distant from Colton, wliere lie entered 
at once into the mercantile business, keeping a general merchandise 
store. In this way he made friends of every one in the county, who 
came for miles to deal with him in preference to going to any other 
store. 

He was selected to the res])onsible position of Supervisor for San 
Bernardino county and held the place up to the time of his death, never 
having lost an election. It is in this position that Mr. Jensen's true 
character can be best appreciated. 

In all his transactions he was on the side of the poor man as against 
the rich, but yet so evenly balanced and a man of such exceedingly 
good common sense, that he rarely made a mistake and scarcely ever 
made an enemj'. Independent in thought, honest in motive, it was but 
seldom anyone had the temerity to suggest anything crooked to him. 
Well indeed would it be if our legislatures were all made up of men so 
absolutely above the suspicion of bribery as the plain, unassuming old 
Dane that guided for so many years the fortunes of San Bernardino 
county. 

Mr. Jensen was a native of Denmark and l)orn in the year 1812. .\s 
to the exact date of his coming to America we are not informed, but 
when the world was electrified by the discovery of gold in 1S4S, we find 
Mr. Jensen, then in his 26th year, at Sacramento, buying and selling 
hides, wool and live stock. He was not the man to lose a golden op-

portunity like this, and although he never -worked in the mines, he 
made considerable money out of those who did. 

He did not remain long in the northern part of the State, hut about 
'51 or '52 he came south and located in San Bernardino county, as al- 
ready stated. 

In 1853 Mr. Jensen was married to the belle and beauty of Southern 
California, Miss Merced Alvarado, of Compton, in Los Angeles county, 
a member of one of the then most aristocratic families in the countr}-. 
Mrs. Jensen still lives, the honored and well-preserved mother of twelve 
children, ten of whom are still living, and all but one at the home in 
West Riverside. The children are : Jose, Conception, Thomassa, Fraii-

cisca, Cornelius, Erolinda (now Mrs. Thorne), Henry, Mary, John, 
Kllen, Robert and Charles. Charles and Ellen are dead. Jose, Thom- 
assa, Francisca and Erolinda are married. F'rancisca married Mr. Gun- 
iiier Kjellburg and is now in Australia. 

In 1870 Mr. Jensen moved his family from Agua Mansa to the pres- 
ent residence of the family in West Riverside. He had bought several 
hundred acres of the Rubidoux ranch and at once proceeded to im- 
prove it by planting part of it to fruit and erecting some very substan- 
tial brick buildings thereon, which are now in as good condition as 
when erected. vSome of the largest orange trees we have seen in Riv-

erside are two planted in 1870 by Mr. Jensen in liis front garden. They 
are iuiineiise seedlinj^s and jjrand hearers. 

.After purcliasiii}^ llie ranch and niovinj^ liis family lliere. Mr. Jensen 
still continued his husiness in San Hernardino and his sons condncleil 
the most of the farminj^ operations — ^Jo.se, his ehlest .son, heinj^ then 
al)out 16 years of age. Hut later years compelled the father to devote 
most of his time to county matters and to abandon mercantile pursuits. 

On the I2th December, 1886, he was taken from his famil)-, leaving 
not oidy them but a whole community to mourn his lo.ss. 

He was always a good friend to Riverside, and as he came to liis 
farm in West Riverside the year the Silk Center .Association sold out to 
the Southern California Colony .Association, he watche<l its develop- 
ment and growth with something akin to fatherly pride, and it is not 
saying too much to assert that for Mr. Jensen personally, and as the 
long and tried County Supervisor, his memory is deeply respected by 
all tlie old settlers of Riverside. 

E. J. Davis. 

Occupying an entirely different position from that of any of the 
preceding sketches is the life and busine.ss career of E. J. Davis, the 
owner and proprietor of Riverside's great and popular hotel, " Tlie 
Rowell." 

There is not much heard of Mr. Davis as one of the pioneers of 
Riverside, and yet there is not one of them who owns as much property 
nor who pays as much taxes as he does. Mr. Davis is an unassuming 
yet a verj- thorough business man, who came here in 1872, and, although 
not a capitalist at the time, he bought the block on which the Rowell 
now stands and the one next it, bounded by Eighth and Ninth, Main 
and Orange. Considerable of the latter has been sold but the former 
is still held b}- the original purcha.ser. 

From 1S72 to 1886 Mr. Davis was one of the busiest men in River- 
side colony ; he being a contractor and builder, and being reliable an<l 
prompt in his transactions, had all he could do in his line of business. 
But it would be very unfair to attribute the whole of Mr. Davis' success 
to himself, for beside him and behind him was a tower of strength and 
a most excellent auxiliary in the person of his wife, who saw the op- 
portunity for making money and was neither too indolent nor too 
proud to aid her husband in every legitimate manner possible. .And 
from that day to the present the gentle, ladylike, yet firm dictum of 
Mr. Davis' better half is the best evidence that he recpures that what 
she approves will l)e crowned with success, and what slie does not ap- 
prove is, to say the least, a very doubtful venture. 

The time came when Riverside needed a hotel, and it did not take 
Mr. Davis long to make up his mind that he was the man to build it. 
.Accordingly, in 1886 the splendid structure, an elegant illustration of 
which is given herewilli, was commenced, an<l before tlie end of tlie

58 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

year it was completed. vSo that the ist of January, 1887, saw the Rowell 
Hotel opened and Mr. M. S. Rowell the proprietor. 

The hotel was run under this management for two years, when j\Ir. 
Rowell surrendered the house to its owner and Mr. Davis bought the 
furniture, etc., and he and his wife from that moment found their nat- 
ural calling as host and hostess of a great popular hostelr}-. 

After a most thorough refitting and refurnishing the Rowell was 
again opened, and it has remained open ever since. From the da}' the 
Davises assumed the management of the house to this very hour it has 
.been but one improvement following another, until today it seems as if 
the management and the appointments of the Rowell were about as 
complete as they could be. 

As the cut of the hotel does not show its size, a few words regard- 
ing the building and the plan of the hotel might not be out of place. 
In the first place, the office is a room forty feet square, lighted by hand- 
some stained-glass windows and electric lights. It has a general and a 
ladies' entrance, and is handsomelv furnished and very conveniently 
arranged. The accompaiiN'ing illustration scarcely does the subject 
justice. It shows Mr. and Mrs. Davis and Mr. Hess, the clerk, and 
may give a general idea of the arrangement of the office, but does not 
show the elegant room as we would like to have it. 

The dining room is the coolest room in the summer to be found in 
Riverside. It is a very finely equipped hall, the tables are profusely 
supplied with silverware and glassware, and, when viewed before being 
thrown open to guests before meal time, presents a splendid appearance. 

Of the service and the qualit}^ and quantity of the food furnished, 
we can only say that they always give so much satisfaction that, after 
being a guest at the house for years, and sometimes for weeks at a time, 
we have never heard the least complaint by anyone, but have frequently 
lieard the tables complimented in undisguised praise. 

The kitchen is entirely separate from the main Ijuilding, so that 
the guest is never offended by the unapetizing aromas that arise from 
the processes of cooking. The kitchen is just as neatly kept as the 
dining room or parlor, and as every one connected with that depart- 
ment is under charge of Mrs. Davis, the}' are kept pretty nearly as they 
shpuld be. 

The house contains eighty-four rooms, including a ladies' and gen- 
eral parlor and all the necessary adjuncts of a really first-class house. 
The bed rooms are scrupulously neat and clean, and the windows all 
protected by bars from mosquitoes and other insects. 

The building is a handsome three-story brick, 140 feet by 123 feet, 
and in all this immense structure there is not one dark room. There 
are, besides the office with a forty-foot front, four stores, each 20x50, on 
Main street and two stores, 25x40, on Ninth street. 

The force consists of from twenty to fifteen people, according to 
the season of the year. 

Krnest H. Hess, the gentlemanly clerk, is nearly always at his post

(Iiirinj4 llie day, ami l-raiik Ivlwanis, llie ni),'lil rlerk, ably lakes Mr. 
Hess' place al ni^lit. These, aii<l iti fact every eiiiploye in the holel. 
partake of the same fjuiet, courteous demeanor of both the host and 
hostess. With such care in the dininj^ room, such cleanliness and com- 
fort in every part of the house, and such universal courtesy as is shown 
every j^uest, it is indeed no wonder that, when other houses are emj)t\ 
or barely paying expenses, the Rowell is well filled — frequently even in 
summer not having accommodations for its many guests. 

Riverside county people nearly all patronize the Rowell, an<l espe- 
cially do tho.se coming to the county seat from the parts of old San 
Diego county, because they feel at home there. 

The Wesleru electric system of calls and fire alarm is in use in the 
house, thus reilucing to the niininium danger of acciilent bv fire.

[Under this general liead we embrace the following branches: 
Newspapers and periodicals, book and job printers, bookbinders, book- 
sellers, stationers and newsdealers, music dealers, typewriters and sten- 
ographers, bill posters.] 

The Riverside Daily Press is the oldest newspaper in Riverside 
county. It is a UL-at. newsy, metropolitan sheetj run by men who have 
grown up with the country and are conversant with its every need, and 
who have its welfare at heart. The PrenK is Re]niblican in jiolitics and 
staunch, though not cranky, in ujiholding its political beliefs. It is 
publislied every afternoon, Sundays oxce])ted. The olVice is furnished 
with the latest and most a])proved machinery and type. The job print- 
ing dejiartnient is under a capable foreman — ^J. J. McMillan — and turns 
out work second to none tlone in the county. .\ Ijookbinding establish- 
ment is another feature of the concern that is worthy of mention. .\> 
good work is done here in this line as in any office .south of Los.Vngeles. 



66 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

The Press has a large following among the solid men of the city and 
county, and is considered by all as a reliable and consistent paper. 

On local and liorticultural matters llie Preas is considered author- 
ity, and during the campaign that decided the existence of Riverside 
county both the Daily and Weekly edition did valiant work that will 
never be forgotten by the people of the county. E. W. Holmes is the 
editor in chief, R. J. Pierson business manager, and L. W. Alluni, late 
of San Diego, city editor. They are ver}' comfortabl}' lo ated at 646 
Eighth street, near Main. 

The Weekly Press and HOPtieultUPist is under the same man- 
agement as The Dailij Press. It has passed its sixteenth birthday. 

Riverside Enterprise was established first in 18S5 by Mr. D. Sar- 
ber, and after several years' publication suspended, the cause being 
hard times consequent upon a busted boom. Mark R. Plaisted took the 
helm in 1890, and to be convinced that he has made a success of it one 
has only to look at any edition, always replete with National, State, 
county and local news. In its politics T/ie A'/(/c;p;/.sf advocates Jeffer- 
sonian Democracy, and is the only Democratic paper in the county. In 
its enterprise it pursues every legitimate wa}- open to go-ahead newspa- 
pers of the present day that are bound by no clique or ring, and that 
dare to speak the truth under any and all circumstances. The circula- 
tion compares favorably with anj' paper, daily or weekly, in Riverside 
county. The following lines, clipped from an editorial published on 
their third anniversary, will show more clearly and definitely the course 
to be pursued b}' them in the future than any other means at our dis- 
posal: "We believe there is a field in this great and growing city and 
county of Riverside for a daily paper that is not only cheap but bright, 
not only bright but newsy, not only newsy but thoroughly Democratic 
and devoted to the service of the people." 

Riverside County Reflex, now in its third year, published by J. 
P. Baumgartner, and is a live local newspaper, well and abl)' edited. Tt 
is a seven-column sheet, handsomely printed on heavy book paper. On 
several occasions it has given evidences of the enterprise and ability of 
its owner by putting forth extra editions replete with much interesting 
reading matter and with many fine half-tone engravings of important 
personages, buildings, etc. In society matters it takes the lead, making 
a specialty of this line of news. It is published every Saturday from its 
offices in the Rubidoux block, J. P. Baumgartner editor and proprietor. 

Health, Home and Horticultural Journal is published monthly 
by W. L. Southey. It was established in 1892, and fills a sphere not 
covered by any other publication. It has already a considerable circu- 
lation, and the moral tone of its editorial department gives it a ready 
entrance to the best homes of the county. 

California, a monthly magazine published by D. A. Correll, is the 
only publication of its kind in Southern California. It has a good lit- 
erary department, and strong articles on topics of scientific, national 
and local interest are contributed by very able writers. It patterns to a 
goodly extent after the larger magazines of the East, and in the matter 
of illustration has just reason to be proud. The office is on Main street 
near the Riverside Banking Co. 's building. 

The Y. M. C. A. News, published by the Y. M. C. A., is a bright, 
newsy little sheet, published monthly, replete with Association news.

The Keeley Institute. — About two years ago a branch of the cele- 
brated Keeley InsliluLc was established in Riverside for the cure of the

that has resulted already in the most wonderful and lasting benefits to 
scores of unfortunate men and women, who have come here ami been 
cured of their habits of drunkenness and slavery to oj)iuni and mor- 
])hine. The only remedies used are Dr. Leslie Keeley "s chloride of

for the baths is only twenty-five cents. They are reached by taking the 
Fairview horse car to the eastern end, when a friendly guide-post points

CHAPTER XII. 
RIVERSIDE COUNTY. 

The new county of Riversiile has an area of 7031 square miles, and 
ranks as the eighth of California counties in size. Five thousand two 
hundred and ninetv-two square miles of this territory are desert lands 
and barren mountains. These undesirable parts of the county are 
mostl}- in the southern and eastern portions. 

Our handsome map shows clearh- every part of the county except 
the eastern, and as this is nearly all desert we have not included it, as 
it would make the map a bad shape for handling. 

An attempt was made in 1S91 to secure a division of San Bernar- 
dino and San Diego counties and the formation of a new count}-, but 
the measure failed in the Assemljh-. This involved a tedious wait of 
two years. 

There were two causes that led to the divi.sion of the old counties 
and the formation therefrom of a new one. In the first place. River- 
side citN- had very just cause of complaint against the action of the 
Board of Supervisors of San Bernardino county for mijust discrimina- 
tion against her taxpayers in the assessment of 1S92. Added to this 
there had of late years grown up such an ill-feeling between the people 
of the old county seat an<l tlie tliriving young city of Riverside that 
there was absolutely no fellowsliij) l)etween them, and union, either pt)- 
litical or social, was imiwssiblc. Hence the people of Riverside deter- 
mined to separate tliemselves from the old county at all liazards. 

Tliis was the state of feeling that obtained in Riverside. In the 
northern tliird of vSan Diego county the people also greatly desired a 



86 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 



separation from their county, but for very different reasons. The dis- 
tance to their county seat, and the long, roundabout route to be trav- 
eled to get there, was a burden too hard to be borne. From many parts 
of the county it required three days' time and the traveling of several 
hundred miles to reach vSan Diego and transact a few hours' business 
and make the return trip. 

Apart from this, the country that belonged to San Diego county 
was pleasantly situated, and every possible relationship with their 
count}' government was as pleasant as could be desired. 

The bill forming Riverside county was introduced in the Legislature 
Monday, Januar}' 9, 1893, and received the Governor's signature March 11. 

Almost immediately thereafter the Governor appointed five leading 
citizens of the county as a commission for the purpose of organizing the 
county. They did their work well and their names will not soon be 
forgotten from the history' of Riverside. They are : 

D. G. Mitchell, of. Ferris ; 
Bpadford Morse, of Riverside ; 
John McLaPen, of San Jacinto ; 
0. A. Smith, of South Riverside ; and 
F. A. MilleP, of Riverside. 

On the first Tuesday in May an election was held for the purpose of 
voting on the question of creating a new county, the election of officers 
and the fixing of a place for the county seat. 

The vote for the county stood 2277 

The vote against the county 681 

For county seat- 
Riverside had 2140 

Menifee 459 

Scattering 70 

The gentlemen who were elected to fill the various offices need not 
be mentioned here, as their portraits and biographical sketches appear 
further along in this work, under the head of the County Government. 

In the next chapter we shall give a brief outline of the various 
parts of the count}-, their institutions, business and professional men, 
premising that the notices of individuals and firms are only of those 
who have given us their patronage in this work. The director}- given 
in Part II, however, is of all classes in these towns, whether our patrons 
or not. 

SAN JACINTO. 

(Formerly in San Diego county.) 

The second city in size and importance in the county is located at 
the very head of the great San Jacinto Valley and at the foot of the 
towering mountain of the same name, on a branch of the Southern 
California Railway, forty-one miles from Riverside and 105 miles from 
Los Angeles. 

The city is the trading point for the farmers for miles around in 
every direction. The stores are large and stocked with fresh goods, 
many of the merchants buying direct from the wholesale houses in San 
Francisco, Chicago and New York. 

The valley is one of the largest of any in Southern California, and 
is planted chiefly to hay and grain, although a large irrigation dis- 
trict, backed by great wealth, has lately put in a fine irrigation system 
extending from the extreme head of the valley down to Olive Green, a 
distance of over fifteen miles, and in the future an immense acreage 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. 87 

will muloubtedly be planted to deciduous fruits of all kinds, it havinjj 
been jiroven that the soil is well adapted to such. The averaj^e yield of 
barley is ten sacks to the acre and a ton and a half of hay, which usu- 
ally brings from ;f6 to f 15 a ton, the >;rain bringing from iifly cents to 
J1.25 per cental. 

The city proper is in the artesian belt and is abundantlj- su])plied 
with pure cold water for "domestic and irrigating purposes. Alfalfa 
grows here without water, vegetaljles thrive and delicious fruits of all 
kinds are grown in abundance. 

The original town site was laid off in 1885 by the San Jacinto Land 
A.ssociation, of whicli G. I). Compton was president and manager. J. 

A. ICstudillo, Francisco I%studillo, Topo l^studillo, J. A. Logsdon and 
H. T. Ilewett were among the first settlers in the valley, they being 
here years before the town was contemplated and to them and others is 
<lue credit for much that the valley is at present. 

In May, l89i,the town was partially burned down, but immedi- 
ately larger and more handsome buildings were erected, giving the 
place a more citified appearance. 

Immense quantities of barley, wheat and hay, stock and dairy pro- 
duce, honey, lumber and lime are annually shipped from here, and it is 
owing to the fact tliat there is more exported than imported that the 
place is in so sound a financial condition. 

Groceries, clothing and general merchandise and the most im- 
proved agricultural implements constitute the imports.

Health Resorts. 

Relief Springs.— The Hot Springs sitnated four and one-half miles 
north of San Jacinto, owned by S. J. Branch, the present manager and 
proprietor, were developed in 1SS5, but previous to that had been used 
by the neighboring settlers for their wonderful curative powers. 

In 18SS a commodious house of twenty-five rooms, known as the 
Relief Springs Hotel, was erected, and since then has enjoyed a large 
share of patronage, while the springs are steadily growing into popu- 
larit}' as they become better known. Mr. Branch, the proprietor, is a 
genial, whole-hearted host, who spares neither pains nor expense to 
make his guests feel at home and contented. These springs are situ- 
ated among the hills and have a beautiful location where the balmy air 
aids the wonderful mud and sulphur springs to restore to perfect health 
the person afflicted with either rheumatism, neuralgia, scrofula, kidney 
or skin diseases of any kind. The springs have a temperature of from 
103° to ioS°. Baths can be had at anj' time, as the water is led direct 
from the springs to the tubs, thus saving the valuable gases that other- 
wise would be lost. The proprietor keeps a team that meets guests of 
the hotel at the depot, by previous arrangement with him. The rates 
here are moderate and invalids may rely on the best medical attend- 
ance and skilled nurses. Altogether this is a very inviting healtli re- 
sort and offers as man}- inducements as can be found m an}- place in 
this wonderful countr}* of hot springs. 

San Jacinto Hot Sulphur Springs.— Among the many famous 
health resorts of Southern California none have a better name for their 
curative powers than the San Jacinto Hot Sulphur Springs, under the 
direct supervision of Dr. B. A. Wright, a physician of many years' ex- 
perience. Ages before the town of San Jacinto was ever dreamed of 
these valuable waters wasted year after jear on the hills east of the 
present city, but gradually their value became known, and in 1S88 a 
neat cosy hotel and bath house were erected and are now under the care 
of the venerable doctor, who is ablj- assisted by his wife. Here can be 
had mud, vapor and shower baths that are unsurpassed for the cure of 
rheumatism, kidney diseases, neuralgia and skin diseases of all kinds. 
A large swimming tank, 100x60 feet, is a very important feature of the 
place, and one much appreciated by the guests of the hotel and the 
residents of the city. The buildings are situated on the hillsides about 
two miles east of San Jacinto, and the view obtained from the hotel ve- 
randah is unequalled for beauty anywhere in this southern country. A 
postal card dropped to the proprietor, and you are met l)y the hotel 
'bus, which conveys yoxi to the hotel free of charge. The terms are 
very moderate and the accommodations good.

SOUTH S.\N J.A.CINTO — BOWKRS P. O. 

South San Jacinto, or old town, as it is usually called, is located 
about a half a mile south of San Jacinto. The j)lace contains one very 
large block, several stores, a lumber yanl and planiiig mill. For manv 
years this was the trading point for tliis section. Tlie back countrv is 
very rich; stock, grain, liay and honey are chiefly grown. The post- 
office was named after the Congressman who was instrumental in hav- 
ing one located at this point. All that is said about the new town is 
true of the old. The people are as one in lioth places. The climate is 
warm in summer but in winter is very agreeable. 

Hall & Stilson, proprietors of the large general merchandise store 
of the place and of the Pahna Hotel, which is run in first-class style 
and is the liead(juarters for traveling men generally. 

John Shaver, three years ago, started a large planing mill con- 
taining the latest and most improved machinery and one that has a 
<laily capacity of 20,000 feet. Surfacing, matching, flooring, rustic 
moulding, sash, doors, l)linds, etc., are turned out in a way that invari- 
ably gives satisfaction. One very extensive branch of the trade is the 
bee material business, every year thousands of boxes and frames being 
made here. The mill is located near the postoffice and close to the 
lumber yard. He understands his business and has all the trade of this 
section. 

Jos. Wellet, only shoemaker in vSouth vSan Jacinto, has a large 
share of the custom and deserves it, as he is a good workman; has been 
in San Jacinto for five years and now owns his own neat building. He 
contemplates putting in a complete stock of ladies' and gents' sjioes in 
the fall.

SOUTH RIVERSIDE 

(Formerly in vSaii Reniardiiio county) 

Known "generally as the Queen Colony of Southern California, is situ- 
ated on the vSouthern California Railroad, fourteen miles south from 
Riverside and fifty miles from Los Angeles. Until seven years ago lit- 
tle or no advancement was made here. In the spriiig-titne everything 
was green and lovely: in the summer everything dry and desolate, only 
a few hardy plants being able to stand the long hot summer without 
any rain. A lew sheej)herders, however, held forth, and some little at- 
tempt was made at grain raising. 

In 1886 a company backed by wealth, and unlimited confidence in 
the possibilities of the place, took hold, laid off the town, developed 
water, planted trees, advertised the place, and from then till now tlie 
colony has gone ahead — slowly, to be sure, during the hard times after 
the boom, but suffering far less than the more highly-advertised but less 
worthy sections. 

The town proper consists of a plot of ground in circular shape, 
three miles in circumference, around which is a boulevard 100 feet in 
width and lined on either side with several different kinds of ornamen- 
tal trees. Water is abtindant. Immense quantities of clay, gy]>suni, 
sewer pipe, hay, grain and honey are shipped from here. .V large air- 



94 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 



(Irj-ing lumber yard and the cla3'-pipe works are adjacent to the town. 
Three churches, a large two-story brick school, and several other large 
buildings have been erected, A bank conducted by respected and 
wealthy men, a large three-story hotel, ail give the town, which is lo- 
cated nearly in the middle of the circle, a very good appearance. 

Many hundred acres of orange, lemon and deciduous trees have 
been set out, which in a few years will be 3ielding large dividends to 
their owners. The climate is mild in winter, warm in summer, and 
nearly free from disagreeable winds. 

The colony is primaril}- a fruit-growing community, although no 
inconsiderable amount of hay and grain is raised here. 

The Churches. 

The Baptists have an organization and a house of worship and are 
strong and healthy; Rev. J. F. Moody pastor. Services every Sabbath. 

Congregational. — This denomination organized in 1887 and now 
has a thriving church of seventy members, a handsome church house 
and parsonage free from debt. They receive but little aid from the 
mission boards and soon expect to be self-supporting. Rev. J. S. Jewell 
is pastor. Services ever}^ Sabbath. 

Methodists are strong here, numbering 126 active members. 
Their church, which is self-supporting, is free from debt; was built in 
1889, and they expect to enlarge this fall. They have an Kpworth 
League of sixty-five members and a Junior of twenty-five; Rev. T. W. 
Lincoln pastor. Services eve»y Sabbath. 

EpiscopaL— The Episcopalians are under the pastoral care of the 
Rev. Alfred Fletcher. Their congregation, though small, is very earn- 
est in the work. Lots have been secured in a desirable part of town 
and a building is soon to be erected. Services held in the school house 
every Sabbath.

employment. The company was formed in 18SS under the name of the 
Southern California Water and Sewer Pipe Manufacturing Company, 
but which was afterward changed to the Pacific Clay Manufacturing 
Company. The capital stock of the company is $250,000, of which over

98 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 



EAST RIVERSIDE 

(Formerl}- in Sail Bernardino connty) 

Is a small, prosperous, fruit-growing community about three miles east 
of Riverside on the Southern California railroad. Water is abundant. 
Alfalfa and hay do well. Many acres of choice nursery stock have been 
planted around the town, which consists of a general store owned by 
Warren J. INIarsh, a good large schoolhouse, and a Methodist church of 
which the Rev. Gowan is pastor. 

Many of the settlers have very beautiful homes and many have 
apiaries that yield abundantly. Dr. Eli F. Brown, the superintendent 
of Riverside schools, has a splendid residence near the station. For 
size, elegance and beauty of surroundings few places in Riverside equal 
this. 

W.J. Marsh keeps in his store all kinds of choice family groceries, 
and a stock of general goods that are clean and fresh. 

There are several trains each way daily between Colton, San Ber- 
nardino and Riverside, besides the Motor road, thus giving the place 
good railroad accommodation, postoffice, express and telegraph office, 
and a very desirable place to live. 

PERRIS 

(Formerl}- in San Diego county) 

Is located on the Southern California Railroad twent\'-one miles from 
the county seat in a southerly direction, eighty-five miles from Eos An- 
geles and twent)- miles from San Jacinto, in the center of a very large 
grain and fruit-growing territory. 

Both Ferris town and Ferris valley, like the rest of Southern Cali- 
fornia, received no substantial improvements previous to 1885, when a 
few men, who saw a bright future for this seeming barren waste, took 
hold and with commendable pluck and energy did all in their power to 
make Ferris known to the world. A town-site was laid off, a side-track 
laid at their expense, houses erected and the virgin soil broken. Grad- 
ually Ferris became known outside of the valle}-, settlers came to look 
and remained to make homes for themselves, and in a short time the 
boom struck the town and it grew^ marvelously ; but when the reaction 
came, instead of getting discouraged like other towns generally, the 
men stood together and continued to improve, even in the face of dull 
times. A few years ago a fine irrigation system was completed, the 
water being brought from Bear Valley, a distance of forty miles. Water 
now is abundant, it being ditched and piped almost over the entire 
valley. Deciduous trees of all kinds are being set out by the thousand, 
acres of alfalfa are grown, and everywhere can be seen the wonderful 
change brought about by the water. 

As yet the chief exports are hay, grain, honey and wool, these be- 
ing shipped in large quantities annually. 

The climate is very mild and pleasant in winter, there is never a 
complete failure of crops, and, considered from every .side, Ferris has as 
bright a future as any town in the new county. 

The Churches. 

CongFegational. — Rev. W. N. Burr, pastor. Has a membership 
of eighty-five, a Y. F. S. C. E. and Sabbath School. Freaching services

102 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 



ELSINORE 

(Formerly in San Diego county) 

Sometimes called the Lake City of Southern California, is located 
twelve miles from Ferris, thirtj'-one miles from Riverside and ninety- 
tive miles from Los Angeles and is two miles from the Southern Califor- 
nia railroad, its shipping point being ELsinore Station. 

The names of Collier, Graham, Heald and many others will always 
be linked with the early history of Elsinore. 

In 1SS3 the first attempt was made at settlement and shortly after 
the men mentioned above came in, purchased the land in and around 
the present town-site. All the steps generally supposed to be necessary 
to boom a town were taken and PUsinore boomed. When the excite- 
ment subsided the people found themselves with two large banks on 
their hands, a steam laundry, four hotels, numberless stores and a great 
many town lots. 

But the several dark years that followed had the effect of showing 
of what the people were made. Every effort was made to carry the 
town steadily forward, selfish purposes were laid aside and it is due to 
this that Elsinore is what it is today. During the darkest times the 
local paper, edited by Horace McPhee, continued week after week en- 
couraging and aiding in ever}' way possible the struggling pioneers. 

Probably no other community in the new county has so man}' nat- 
ural advantages as Elsinore, nor does any possess such varied resources. 
Coal, terra cotta pipes, clay, asbestos, hay, grain, green and dried fruit, 
butter, honey and poultry are shipped in great quantities. 

The cit}' borders on the shore of the lake, which is six miles in 
length and two and one-half in width. Water fowl are abuiKlant here. 
The hunting is good and rowing and yachting are often resorted to by 
the 3-oung people. Around the lake are many beautiful homes, highl}- 
improved and set to fruit, both deciduous and citrus. At the head of 
the lake is a section of land about one mile square known as Block B 
and for fertility it is ahead of an3'thing in Southern California. 

The City Council. — J. F. Jones, president, E. Z. Bundy, Jas. Bal- 
four, Lafayette Yates; J. A. Hoag, city clerk and city attorney; I. B. 
Dutton, city marshal and city tax collector; Thompson Cameron, treas-

Southern California Coal and Clay Co.— Among the many val- 
uable resources of Ivlsiuore there is none that can compare witli the 
magnificent sewer pipe works at Terra Cotta, near the city of Elsinore.

this city has been the returns from this splendid manufactory. The di- 
rectors have manifested great liberality in their e.xpenditures, having 
put in one of the best plants in the United States, and further. shown 
their wisdom in the selection of a far-seeing, keen business man for 
their general manager. The quality of the pipe is as good as the best 
made anywhere, and the clay beds owned by the company are practi- 
cally inexhaustible. The head office is at 24.S Soutli Broadway, Los

MORENO 

vFonnerly in San Bernardino county) 

Is at the liead of the j^reat Alessandro Valley, sixteen miles east 
from Riverside and fifteen miles west of San Jacinto, and is one of the 
solid, progressive towns of the county. 

The valley, of which it is so "important a part, consists of 40,000 
acres of level, rich land, 25,000 bein*; in the irrigation district. 

The town-site of 280 acres has l)een laid off. Several large two- 
story brick buildings have been erected and are occupied by merchants 
representing all l)raiiches of trade usually found in a country town. 

Surrounding the town for miles in each direction are thousands of 
acres of choice grain and fruit lands. Already 2,000 acres of citrus 
trees have been planted, all of which are making a healthy, rapid 
growth. The largest orange grove in the world, consisting of 700 acres, 
is but a short distance from town. Twenty-five hundred acres of decid- 
uous trees, mostly peach, prune aii<l apricot, all give evidence by their 
wonderful growth of the adaptability and fertilit}- of the soil. 

In 1S93, 16,000 acres of grain were sown, that yielded an average of 
36 bushels per acre. , 

Two churches have been organized — Methodist and Christian, bolli 
of which are doing well and are under good jiastoral care. 

The I. O. G. T. and I'raternal Aid are here, and meet respeotivel_\ 
I'riday and Saturday evenings. 

A large school costing 55'^oo, and a first-class hotel, are other at- 
tractions of the place.

BANNING 

(Formerl\- in San Bernardino and San Diego counties) 

Is located thirty- six miles eastward from Riverside and twenty-five miles 
from San Bernardino, and is the last town of any importance on the 
Southern Pacific Railroad in the San Gorgonio Pass. The town is very 
picturesquely situated, being at the eastern base of Mt. San Jacinto and 
the western base of the San Bernardino Mountains. 

The history of the place dates back some seventeen years, when 
the railroad came through the pass for the first time. Not much was 
done, however, until more recentl}-, when the ground was put on the 
market, a town laid off and water developed by the Banning Land and 
Water Co., of which C. O. Barker is the president. The town has sev- 
eral fine stores, a hotel, several churches and societies and a good school. 
Much has been done in the waj' of planting friyt trees; hundreds of 
acres are now coming into full bearing. Abundant water for irrigating 
purposes has been developed and is piped and ditclied over the land. 

The exports are chiefly hay, grain, wool, honey and dried fruits; 
many tons of the latter are shipped yearly.

of Banning, and attracting little attention from outsiders, is located an 
institution known to but few people of the county. St. Boniface's In- 
dian Industrial School was established in 1S90 and is under the super- 
intendency of the Catholic Church. This school is under teachers all 
of the Catholic faith, devoted women giving their lives for the benefit 
of those they seek to instruct and uplift. A certain sum is annually 
paid to the directors for every child kept, cared for and instructed, by 
the government of the I'niled .States. About 120 children of both .sexes 
are dailv instructed in learning the common branches of an Knglisli 
education, and in the case of boys, some trade calculated to enable 
them to earn an honest living, while girls are taught the more simple 
hou.sehold duties, including dressmaking and plain .sewing. The best 
jiossible care is given to the students and every effort put forth to make 
them honorable men and women. Eight sisters of the church consti- 
tute the corps of instructors, while practical, experienced mechanics 
are employed in the industrial part of the work. Fine large grounds, a 
good substantial three-story brick building and excellent management 
do much toward making this school rank well toward tlie front willi in- 
stitutions of its kind in the United States.

MURRIETA 

(Formerly in San Diego county) 

Is situated on the Southern California railroad forty miles from River- 
side and about 105 miles from L,os Angeles. 

About eight years ago the town was started by a large land and 
water company, a large hotel was erected and the valley soon began to 
settle up with a class of intelligent, progressive people who have suc- 
ceeded in a few short years in transforming about 10,000 acres of then 
barren land (save for a little sage brush) into producing grain fields, 
orchards and homes. In 1891 the question of water confronted these 
people and they voted for it, but for some reason the district has not 
produced the water and there is some talk of disbanding. 

Large quantities of grain and hay, stock and honey are shipped. 
The weather will not allow citrus fruits to grow, but deciduous fruits of 
all kinds do well, almost every farmer having a large orchard of his 
own. 

There is a Methodist and Kpiscopal church; Rev. J. H. Camp is the 
pastor of the latter, which has nearlj' thirty communicants. A large 
schoolhouse employing two teachers, and a literar}' and social society 
are other advantages of the place. The town is ahead of many of its 
size in the number and quality of its btisiness houses. 

Business and Professional Men. 

Colepiek Brothers are the pioneer merchants of Murrieta. They 
do a general merchandise business and carry high-grade goods. Their 
prices will compare favorably with any store in the valley. 

Dp. C. Lawrence. — Eor many years a practicing physician and sur- 
geon here, and proprietor of a drug store stocked in every branch as 
well as the size of the place will permit. 

P. W. Olsen has in his livery stable first-class rigs, single or double, 
and gives transient stock partictilarly good care. 

John M. Richardson, dealer in all kinds of agricultural imple- 
ments and farm tools, hardware, paints, oils, etc. The farmers would 
do well to see him before going elsewhere to purchase. 

Henry Sykes, known to traveling men generally as well as the 
local residents as the keeper of a verj- home-like hotel. His prices are 
always fair. 

B. W. Tarwater keeps in his general inerchandise store all kinds 
of choice, fresh family groceries, dry goods, etc. Mr. T. has been a 
resident here for several years, and built up a strong trade by his cour- 
teotis and just treatment of customer.?.

BEAUnONT 

(Formerly ill San Bernardino county) 

Is a small farming town on the Southern Pacific railroad, eighty-one 
miles .southeast from Los Angeles and thirty miles cast of Riverside. 

It is located on the summit of the great San (^orgonio Pass. 2600 
feet above the sea level. The locality is considered good for people 
with lung troubles. Some few of the oldest settlers came here prior to 
the boom of "86, but the town proper started then. \ large three-story- 
hotel, furnished elegantly and co.sting 545,000, was erected. There are 
at present four churches," all in running order; a well graded grammar 
.school; abundant water for domestic and small irrigating puri)oses; 
stores of all kinds; good railroad accommodations; intelligent, wide- 
awake people. The town is well laid off, and many shade and orna- 
mental trees have been planted; the Southern Pacific round-house is 
located here, giving work to several men constantly, and a large ware- 
house with a capacity of 50,000 sacks all help to give prospe^ty and 
beauty to the town. 

Arizona and New Mexico Commercial Co., with headquarters 
at Tucson, have had a branch house here under J. R. Hallman since 
1S91. They act as a distributing center for the laborers on the railroad 
for miles in' either direction and do a large trade with the residents. 

Mrs. M. M. Fisher keeps a very quiet, home-like hotel, the Del 
Paso for transieiil and regular patrons. 

Milliner Bros, are the managers of the meat market of the place. 
Their teams go into the surrounding country to serve their custoiners, 
free of charge. All kinds of fresh meat in season. Fresh fish Friday.

WINCHESTER 

(Formerly in San Diego county) 

Is situated on a branch of the vSouthern California Railroad, ten miles 
from either San Jacinto or Perris. The credit of forming the town may 
be rightfullv laid to the Rev. Dr. Miller, lately deceased, Mrs. Rice ami 
D. t)'Learv!all of whom worked faithfully in support ol their cherished 
scheme. For many years this whole valley was used for the j)ro(Uulion 
of grain and hav, and during the shipping season of 1890 exjiorteil more 
of such than aiiv other station on the Sf)utherii California Railroad. 
Large amounts of honey aii<l wool are likewise sliipjjed. 

In 1S91 the people of the valley voted for water, an able board of 
directors and capable officers were elected, and as a result there is an

HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 



abundance of water for irrigation purposes from the head of ll;e valley 
to the foot at ()live Green, a distance of over fifteen miles. 

Much of the hard work of forming the district, much of the ex- 
pense contingent upon such a huge undertaking, was by F. T. Linden- 
berger, a better friend than whom the valle}- does not possess. To liim 
more than to any one man should the people be grateful for their abun- 
dant suppl}' of water. A very large acreage has already been put to 
deciduous fruit and a much larger acreage will follow the advent of 
water. These trees thrive here. 

The Methodists organized in 1887 and have a comfortal)le church 
and parsonage free from debt. Rev. Irving R. Lovejoy is pastor, and 
also of the congregation at Florida. They have a live Sabbath School. 
Services every Sabl^ath morning. 

The I. O. G. T. organized but are not meeting now.

and a physician and surgeon respected in the community where he re- 
sides. 

LindenbePgeP Bros. & Case, dealers in real estate and insurance. 
Some of the most desirable property of the vicinity is under their con- 
trol. They are a very reliable concern and pioneers in this work. 

John Patterson is the proprietor of a store fully up to if not ahead 
of the average countr}- store. A good line of fresh family groceries and 
provisions, boots, shoes, hats, caps, clothing, dry goods and fancy 
goods are alvva3'S on his shelves, besides paints, oils and implements. 
His store is the only one in town and is located in a fine, large brick 
building. The blacksmith shop is also under his control and employs 
two men constantl}- to take care of the work that comes in from the 
surrounding country. First-class work guaranteed and special attention 
given to the repairing of farm implements. Mr. P. is also the owner of

and no expense or pains were sjiarecl to make this the model colonv of 
the county. It is five miles from San Jacinto and three miles from 
Hemet, and consists of 3,000 acres of choice land specially adapted to 
citrus and deciduous trees. The place is abundantly supplied with

school here, and the farm of Mr. Xewjjort deserves mention as one of 
the largest and best-managed in the State. Honey and fruit are rai^ed

TEHESCAL 

(Forinerh' in San Bernardino county) 

Is located in the Tetnescal Canyon niid\va\' between South Ri\erside 
and Klsinore. It has no direct shipping point, most of the business be- 
ing transacted in South Riverside. The people are engaged chiefly in 
horticulture and honey raising. 

The place has a general store, a blacksmith shop, a literarj- society 
and a ver}- neat school, recently erected. 

D. J. Dawson is the postmaster and proprietor of the general mer- 
chandise store. His prices certainly are low. He also has one of the 
largest apiaries of the vicinity — over 300 stands. 

A daily stage runs between Temescal and South Riverside. Office 
at the postoftice. 

Temescal is rapidly becoming famous as a summer resort, there 
being much shade and water and other necessary' adjuncts. 

The world-famed Temescal tin mines are located in this canyon ; 
they were put in operation a few 3-ears ago at a very heavy expense, but 
recently closed, but are liable to be opened at any time.

EL CASCO 

(Formerly in San Bernardino county) 

Is a station on the Southern Pacific railroad between Beaumont and 
Colton. 

Many large dairies are in this vicinity, as well as l^eefarms; and 
some hay and grain are grown. There is no town here; a postoffice, 
telegraph office, side-track and section house make up the place. 

The soil is ver}' productive and many of the settlers are well-to-do. 

For directory, see page 174, part II. 

LEON 

(Formerly in San Diego county) 

Is a postoffice organized for the accommodation of the residents of that

SAN IQNACIO (SAGE P. O.) 

(Formerly in San Diego county) 

Is a snuill colony of thrift}- farmers located in the mountains and small 
valleys between the San Jacinto and Temecula Valleys. There is little 
profluced in the colony except honey, and considering the number en- 
gaged in tliis industry, it is perhaps the most productive place in the 



RIYKRSIDK COINTV, 18U3-4-. 11") 

count\-. There are two stock ranches and svifficieiit hay is produced to 
supply the wants of the colony, with occasionally a surplus.

INDIO 

(F'ormerly in San Diego county 1 

Is on the Southern Pacific Railroad between Banning and Yuma. The 
peculiar situation makes it extremely warm, it l)eing about 200 feet be- 
low sea level. There is plenty of water here, and the contrast between 
the desert and where the water has been developed and utilized is verv 
marked. Fruit ri])eus here very early. There are several section houses 
and a good hotel. This is the postoffice for Salton and Walter stations, 
ihe large salt works being located at the former place. The warm, drv 
air makes it ;i place specially desirable for consumptives.

CHAPTER XIII. 

THE COUNTY GOVERNMENT. 

We are pleased to present to the business and professional men, as 
well as others who have subscribed to this work, a complete and faith- 
ful picture gallery of every man in any way connected with the first 
county government of this, our new and beautiful Riverside county. 
As a body of men we believe they will compare favorably with any 
other class of citizens in the county or in the vState. 

Xhat the readers of this work may not onl}' know how they appear, 
but also have some knowledge of the past history of the men who are 
serving them in the court house, we have appended a very brief and 
truthful biographical sketch of each, and now, without further remarks, 
we introduce them to our readers. 

W. Q. McVicar. 

The supervisor for the first district is a native of Canada, Init by 
naturalization an American citizen. He was Ijorn in Pakenhan, Onta- 
rio, in 1851, and nine years ago came to California; and seven years 
later settled in South Riverside, engaging in the lumber business, in 
which capacity he has made a success. Mr. McVicar is an energetic 
business man, very decided in his views, though very reticent in ex- 
pressing them. As a representative of his district he is very slow to 
act, but a step once taken is very sure to be one in the right direction, 
and the residents of the first supervisoral district are to be congratu- 
lated on their choice so well made in W. G. McVicar.

it. He was elected in May as .supervisor for the second district and is

part of Riverside. l''or seventeen years Mr. While has lielped to buihl 
Kiverside. His hand and head have done much toward bringing this 
cilv to its present size. He comes of Puritan stock, an<l finishes every- 
thing he undertakes. He fills the position of member of Board of City 
Trustees, and is chairm.m of the Hoard of Supervisors, being a member 
from the Third district. He makes a strong head to the al)]e body of 
Sujiervisors of Riverside county. 



118 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

5. A. Stewart, 

A farmer, banker, and Supervisor — in either position a success. Mr. 
vStewart came to California from Wisconsin, where he was born and 
lived for over forty years as a farmer and merchant. He settled in Klsi- 
nore during the great boom, and has ever since been interested in mans 
ways in the material growth and welfare of his home city. He is in- 
terested in lands in and around the town of Elsinore as well as in tlie 
Perris Valley, and president of the Consolidated Bank of Elsinore. He 
was elected by a large majority to the position he now holds. As he is 
acquainted with the people and the country in his district, it is no won. 
der that he gives satisfaction and that the people who have placed him 
as their representative feel quite contented with their district's affairs in 
the hands of S. A. Stewart. 

F. L. Loveland. 

The supervisor from the fifth district claims Ohio as his native 
vState, though he spent his childhood in Indiana. After several years 
spent in stock-raising and farming he came to California, and after a 
ten-years' residence here returned to the East, only to do as many be- 
fore him had done, return to California, which he did in 1879 and in 
1S87 settled in Winchester Valley, where he has built up a good home 
and better still a good name; and when the people of his district wanted 
a supervisor he showed clearly by the large vote received that he was 
the man; and since his election has, by his many acts of wisdom, shown 
'conclusively that their confidence was well placed. He is a success as 
a man, as a farmer and as a supervisor. 

SUPERIOR COURT. 

Hon. J. 5. Noyes, Superior Judge. 

The central figure in this group occupies the highest post of honor 
in our count)' government — ^Judge of the Superior Court. He is a native 
of Marshall, Mich., where he was born thirty-four years ago, and where 
he was educated. The judge is a ripe scholar, and excepting for a good 
common-school training, he has his own exertions to thank for it, as 
for years he worked hard diiring the summer months, spending his 
earnings to pay for his education during the winter. In 1880 he com- 
menced reading law and so rapid was his progress that he was admitted 
to the bar in the following )'ear. In 1882 he was elected circuit court 
commissioner of his native county, and two 3'ears later prosecuting at- 
torney, to which position he was re-elected in 1S86. In 1887 he resigned 
and came to this State, locating in Rivenside. Of his residence here 
our people all know. He is a firm Republican and has been honored 
by the party repeatedlj' as chairman of the county committee of San 
Bernardino county. His elevation to the bench of our new county was 
a wise act, and we trust he ma}- long be spared to dignify the honora- 
ble position he now holds.

Perris has inaile atonement for her opposition to the connty (li\ision 
scheme by Kiviii}^ us two really excellent ofTicers — D. G. Mitchell, County 
Treasurer, and the subject of this sketch, our plucky, popular District 
Attorney. Mr. Anderson read law and secured a fine classical and Ivnj^- 
lish education in Indiana, in which State he practiced law for several 
years before cominj^ to Califc^rnia. He has been for over a year attor- 
ney for the Perris irrigation district, and has been identified in every

forth for the advancement of his new home. As the County Attorney. 
Mr. Anderson is (juick. reliable and industrious. As a man, he is uj)- 
right and conscientious. .As a friend, he is true, courteous and affable . 

W. R. Sellon, Court Reporter, 

Was born in New York city in 1S24. He lived in New York until 1S411, 
when he removed to Illinois, where, when 22 vears old, he enlisted as a 



120 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

private in Co. A, ist Ills. Vols., and served for one year during the Mex- 
ican war, after which he returned to Illinois, where he resided for some 
years, and subsequently went to New York and after several years to 
Michigan, where he resided until the call for three-year troops in the 
War of the ReVjellion, when he enlisted in the Ninth Mich. Inf., in 
which regiment he served successively as First Sergt., Sergt. Major, 
Second Lieut, and First Lieut., until August 23, 1863, when he was pro- 
moted to be Lieut. Col. Twelftli U. S. Col. Inf. During his service in 
the Ninth Michigan he was taken prisoner and spent some months in 
the Confederate military prison at Madison, Georgia. He was honor- 
ably discharged March 25, 1865, at the close of the war. He then went 
to Burlington, Iowa, where his family were, and, obtaining employment, 
lived there for some twenty-five years. In 1871 he was appointed offi- 
cial stenographer for the District Court of the First judicial district of 
Iowa, which position he retained until January i, 1887, in the fall of 
which year he went to Kansas City, Mo., where he was engaged for 
some three or four j'ears in the practice of his profession, and in the fall 
of 1891 came to California, where he has since resided. On the organi- 
zation of the govermnent of Riverside count}- he was appointed official 
Court stenographer and reporter of the Superior Court, a position he 
still holds and is well qualified to fill. 

Alvin W. Robinson. 

The subject of this sketch was born in Tioga count)-, N. Y., De- 
cember 20, 1828. He secured a good English education while yet a 
young lad, and then was apprenticed to the business of carpenter and 
joiner. Like a true patriot when the call " to arms " was sounded, he 
left all and followed "old glory" into the thickest of the fight. He 
joined the One Hundred and Ninth New York regiment and staid 
with it under Burnside until the fall of Richmond, and at the close of 
the war was mustered out. In 1887 he removed to California and set- 
tled in Elsinore. Here he resunied his trade and was known as an ex- 
cellent mechanic, and owned some real estate. He married in 1868 
Miss Cynthia Speer while in New York State and she still lives a faith- 
ful companion. He moved to Riverside four years ago. Mr. R. was 
an earnest advocate of county division, and as a proper appreciation of 
this, and recognizing the fact that "an honest man's the noblest work 
of God," the supervisors appointed him janitor of the county building, 
a position he is filling to the entire satisfaction of all, and with honor 
to himself. 

B. R. Sellon, 

The son and assistant of W. R. Sellon, Court Reporter of the Superior 
Court of this county, is a master at his profession, having had abund- 
ance of practice in several States and many cities of the Union. He 
was born in Burlington, Iowa, in 1870 and brought up and educated

tliere until liis seveult'eiilh .year; studied sh()rlliaM<l with his falht:!-, 
who was court reporter for many years in ]Uirlin^ton. Vouuk vSellon 
traveled over a goo«l portion of the West and vSoutli, practicing his pro- 
fession in the largest mercantile and law firms in the country, giving 
him an experience attained in liis profession by but very few. He is 
remarkably quick and reliable as a reporter, typewriter and stenogra- 
pher, and our Court is very fortunate in having the services of two men 
at its command both of whom stand at the hea<l of their profession. 
H. R. Sellon, the subject of this notice, has only been in Riverside a 
few months.

Whose portrait appears at the top of the above group, is a native of 
Ohio an<l was born in 1S59. In 1S74 he catne to California, settling 
tirst in .San Diego where he was engaged in business for one year, after 
which time he removed to vSan Bernardino and was employed as a clerk 
in a hardware firm for over a year. He then went to San l-rancisco. 



122 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

and while there i^radualed at HeaM's liusiiiess College; and then went 
to Arizona Territory, where he acted in the capacity of agent for the 
government contractors for transportation of government freight. Re- 
turning to San Bernardino in r88o he engaged in the drug business and 
since 1886 has followed farming, securing 1000 acres of land in the Al- 
essandro and Moreno Irrigation District. Mr. Condee was one of the 
originators of this water district, and has served two terms as a direc- 
tor of that district; and has a home ranch of forty acres which is planted 
to oranges and lemons near Moreno; also 700 acres which has been sub- 
divided into ten-acre lots and placed on the market for sale. Mr, Con- 
dee is a thoroughly competent officer himself and has called around 
him a corps of able, obliging and experienced gentlemen, who as a 
whole, as well as individually, are working hard to make the county 
clerk's office of Riverside county a model establishment. That they 
are succeeding admirably one can easily see by stepping into the ele- 
gant office — the handsomest count)' clerk's office in California. 

James Mills- 
Mr. Mills is a Canadian by birth, having first seen the light of day 
on the 12th of October, 1857, in Renfrew, Ontario. Like most Cana- 
dians he has a good education, received conse utively in the common 
schools of his native town, Upper Canada College, Toronto, and Queen's 
University, Kingston. He came to this coast presumably on a vacation, 
but liked it so well that he decided to make it his home. On the Sth 
of May, 1885, he located in the then booming town of Elsinore and 
started a hardware store, which he conducted for four years, making 
lots of money while good times lasted ; but afterward came to River- 
side, which he has since made his home. He married Miss Hattie J. 
Irish, of Maine, in November, 1887, and "hasn't got tired yet." Mr. 
Mills is the fortunate possessor of a ten -acre fruit ranch at that lovely 
suburb of Riverside, Arlington Heights, where he will soon have a for- 
tune that no bank failure can affect. „ As soon as the legal time would 
allow, Mr. Mills became a citizen of the United States and is now an 
earnest Democrat. In the selection of Mr. Mills as Deputy County Clerk 
and acting Clerk of the Court, Mr. Condee has made a wise choice, as 
by education, habits and disposition Mr. Mills is well qualified for the 
position. 

Miguel Estudillo, 

The youngest of the county officials, whose portrait appears in the pre- 
ceding group, was born in 1869 at San Bernardino, and is the only 
county official who is a native son. Some years after his birth his par- 
ents moved to San Jacinto, where he attended the common schools of 
that place, and when, in 1S85, he entered the Santa Clara College, he 
did so with a determination to master his studies. And that he did is 
evidenced by the many testimonials brought from that place. After 
finishing his college course Mr. Estudillo accepted a po.sition as Deputy 
County Clerk of San Diego count}-, and for two jears filled the office

Fred \V. Swope, Sheriff, 

Who.se portrait appears in the center of the above group, was born in 
Indiana in 1S57, where he receiveil his education at the grammar and 



124 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

vState Normal schools, after which he taught school for two years with 
good success. In 1879 ^^^ located in Kansas City, and for several years 
was in the mail service, but by reason of failing health he was com- 
pelled to leave that position, and in 1885 he came to California. Locat- 
ing here in the spring of 1886 on a farm adjacent to the city of San 
Jacinto, he soon regained his lost health and employed his time in 
building up his own farm and neighborhood. For nearly two jears he 
acted as Deputy Sheriff for San Diego county, during which time he 
gained much experience that enables him to conduct his office here 
with such general satisfaction. Mr. Swope is a Republican in politics, 
and has been staunch in his support of Riverside county since the cam- 
paign opened in '93. He is very popular in his own home, having the 
respect and confidence of the entire commuiiit\-. Since his election as 
Sheriff" he has spared neither pains nor expense in running his office in 
a way second to none in the State; indeed, it is a great honor to the 
county and a credit to the chief as well as all the deputies employed. 
He was tendered the nomination for the office of Sheriff" on account of 
the sterling work done for the county, and was elected by a handsome 
majority. He is popular here and deserves the compliment paid him 
l)y the people of Riverside county. 

John ricLaren 

Is Mr. Swope's right-hand man and chief deput}- in the sheriff"'s office. 
By birth and education Mr. McLaren is Scotch, but by every instinct of 
his nature he is American. He has been in the LTnited States about 
twenty-four years and in California about seven. Most of these latter 
years have been spent in San Jacinto, where he has been engaged in 
the saddlery business, as well as an officer in the bank of that place. 
He is a very considerable property holder in San Jacinto and in all av- 
ocations of life he is a successful man. As a man of honor and good 
common sense he was selected to fill a place on the commission that 
organized Rivefside county, and a better choice could not have been 
made; and as the chief deputy of Sheriff" Swope there is no doubt but 
he is proving himself equally useful and reliable as he did on the com- 
mission. 

Elton W. Fairchild, 

One of Sheriff Swope's very efficient deputies, was born in Marion, 
Livingston county, Michigan, in 1846, wliere he obtained a rather lim- 
ited education at the public schools. In 1853 he was compelled to 
move west to Nebraska on account of his health, which had never been 
very good u]) to that time. Here he obtained employment on the Un- 
ion Pacific railroad, then Iniilding through tliat place, and for many 
years after followed railroading as a permanent occupation. In 1S73 
he came to California, locating in tlie central part of the State and was 
married to Miss Hattie Sally at Hollisler, San Benito county, in 187S; 



kivi:ksii)K cotnty, 1.S93-4-. 12." 

from whence he moved ajjaiii, this time cominji; south to Los Aiij/eles 
and not loni^ after moved to San Jacinto, beinj^ tlie first settler on the 
town-site of the now busy little city of tliat name. For eleven years 
Mr. K. has been a resident there, doing chiefly a real estate business. 
He supported strongly the Riversifle county measure and spared neither 
himself nor his time in doing all in his power to advance what seemed 
to him the best possible thing for the residents of his section. In the 
selection of Mr. Fairchild, Mr. Swope appointed a man who is respected 
by his neighbors and is giving satisfaction to all with whom he mingles 
in his new position. 

F. H. Robinson, Deputy Sheriff, 

Was born in Louis county. New York, September 4, 1853, and moved, 
when quite young, with his parents to Wisconsin. After graduating at 
the high school there he spent several years learning the carpenter's 
trade, which trade he has followed ever since and is a good workman, 
understanding thoroughly the many different branches of his business. 
In 1876 he was married to Miss Klizabeth Diddock, and has a family of 
six children — two boys and four girls. Six years ago he moved with his 
family to South Riverside, and there is the proprietor of a first-class 
woodworking and carpentering shop. Mr. Robinson is an out-and-out 
Republican, and was appointed by Mr. Swope as a deputy on account 
of his personal qualifications for the office as well as out of respect for 
the people of South Riverside. For sterling good qualities as a man, 
as a citizen and as a public officer, there is no man in the court house 
more entitled to the respect of the people than Mr. Robinson.

E. H. Qruwell, Recorder. 

The portrait in the center (jf the al)ove group is that of our young 
and popular County Recorder. He has now been in otTice about three 
months, and with the excellent corps of assistants he has called around 
him has already succeeded in making tlie Recorder's office of Riversirle 
county a model of neatness, system and economy to the county. For 
this assertion we do not depend on our own judgment, but have the 
assurance from outsiders who are thoroughly competent to judge. The 
tax-payers of the county are interested in the administration of the 
public offices, and a glance into the Recorder's office tells the story of 
industry, economy and system. Mr. Gruwell is a native of Iowa and is 
25 years of age. Like most of our great men, he laid the foundation 
for a life of public usefulness in a printing office. For some years he 
was foreman and manager for II. Mcl'hee & Co., of Elsinore. He was 
always a friend of county division, an<l received an unanimous vote at 
the nominating convention for the office he now holds. .\ service of 
two years as Deputy Recorder in San Diego county has been of great

value to Mr. G., but his own good connnon sense, aided by his courteous 
and affable disposition, is his best backing now and his surest passport 
to success in the future. 

C. O. Alkire. 

The young man whose name heads this sketch is well and favorably 
known in Riverside, for his home has been here since 1882, and he has 
held many places of honor and trust under the late county government 
as well as under the city government. For example, for nearly two

years he was Deputy County Recorder of San Bernardino county, and 
also for three years he was Deputy City Clerk and Assessor of River- 
side. Of course this and similar training fits him faithfully and profit-

of that place with honor. He is an earnest Repviblican. and socially 
very popular. He has lately been lH)nore<l with the hij^hesl office in 
the K. of P. lodjre, in which he is a leadinj^ member. He is now Chan-

I. S. Logan. 

The subject of this sketch was born in Triiro, Nova vScotia, where 
he received a j^ood KuKlish education and business training. He came 
to California in search of health and wealth. The former he has hap- 
pily succeeded in getting; the latter he is equally sure of, for he is so- 
ber, industrious and economical. He lost no time in becoming a citi- 
zen of this great nation, as no sooner was the necessary five years 
passed than he was naturalized and became a thorough-going Republi- 
can. Mr. Logan is a newspaper man by profession and has for years 
been associated with H. McPhee & Co. of Elsinore, the well-known 
journalists of that place. Nearly all the time since :Mr. Logan has been 
in the State he has spent in Murrieta, Klsinore and Terris, and wher- 
ever his lot has been cast he has been highly respected for his sterling 
goodness of heart and gentleness of manner. Socially he is a favorite 
everywhere he is known. When the county division question came up 
he was outspoken in favor of the project, often to his own pecuniary 
disadvantage. He was selected by Mr. Gruwell as a deputy because of 
his industry and other excellent qualifications for the place, and we are 
assured by his chief that the selection was well and wisely made.

D. G. Mitchell, County Treasurer. 

The subject of this sketch, whose portrait appears above, was born 
in Erie county. Pa., on the 3d of July, 1846. He was only a boy of fif- 
teen when, throughout that loyal State, rang the call for volunteers for 
the Union army; and young Mitchell caught the inspiration, and at the 
sacrifice of home and school and friends fought his way into the ranks 
of the mighty host that went to defend and save his country. He 
joined Co. C of the One Hundred and Eleventh Penn. Volunteers an<l 
served with honor through tlie three-year term of enlistment. He was 
discharged December 26, 1S64; but imme<liately re-enlisted in Co. M, 
One Hundred and Second Penn. regiment, in which he serve<l till the 
close of the war. In 1S6S Mr. M. married Miss Matilda H. Godfrey, 
who still lives to make life pleasant for her husband and five chiblren. 
After some twenty-two years longer spent in the Western States, Mr. 
Mitchell came to California, at once settling in Perris; and after a six- 
years' residence there has come to Riverside with his family, so as to 
be free to attend to the duties of his honorable and responsible office. 
He was appointed by the Ciovernor as a commissioner for the formation

saying one word more than the truth that in whatever position our es-

Mr. Mitchell is one of the rising men of Southern California.

that city. He worked up from messenger to operator, but having a de- 
sire for California, he left that employ and lauded here in 1S87. He at 
once secured a place in the postoffice, and from clerk became assistant 
postmaster. On the 25th November, 1891, he was united in matri- 
mony to Mrs Juliet Raymer, of Riverside, a lady of culture and edu- 
cation. Mr. Stibbens is well known and well liked in Riverside, and

iSSi he located in his present home at Murrieta and entere.l the bank 
in.n busine.ss there, and with others organized the Murrieta colony, he 
was master of the situation in that then fast-growing community. But 
reverses came to the colonv, and through circumstances over which the 
colonists themselves had no control, all the parties interested were 
heavy losers, and when the unfortunate "boom busted" it left many a 
financial wreck strewn upon the finely lai<l-out town-sites of the Tem- 
ecula Valley. It is to that catastrophe we are indebted for having a 
man of Mr.Vox's splendid business talents here today filling the poorly- 
paid office of .\uditor of Riverside county. To .say that Mr. Fox is 
fitte.l for the position is but little compliment to him ; there are hun- 
dreds of others fitted to fill the office who are in no sense of the word 
his ecjuals in business ability, in fine clerical work or wide range of 
financial ju<lgment. But for all that, Riversi.le county is fortunate in 
having Mr. Fox as Auditor in starting out her financial system and lay- 
ing a correct foun.lation for her book-keeping. 

Geo. n. Pearson, Surveyor, 

Was born in Iowa in i866. After attending the .schools of his own 
neighborhood for several years, he entered the Western College in 
Pennsvlvania at the age of seventeen, and four years later completed 
the course of engineering and mathematics, the same year moving to 
San Diego. Cal., where he began immediately to practice his profession 
and was shortlv appointed deputy United States .surveyor by Unite.l 
States Survevor General Hammon.l. Mr. Pear.son has had a large ex- 
perience in irrigation work, having been employed by the Ivlsinore Ir-

Edward Lownes 

Is a native of Delaware county, Penn., where he received the rudiments 
of an education which was finished later in the Westtown College and 
the University of Pennsylvania. From both of these he graduated with 
distinction. In the latter he took a complete course in civil engineer- 
ing. Mr. Lownes' subsequent career has been among the foremost en- 
gineers and largest public works in the United States, where he has 
studied and practiced his profession as but few men on this Coast have 
had an opportunity of doing. He was for a time assistant surve3-or in 
the city of Philadelphia and for four years was the chief deputy sur- 
ve^-or of Los Angeles county. In 1S90 he was with the Surveyor Gen- 
eral of this State, and in 1892 received the appointment, which he still 
holds, of chief engineer of the Riverside Heights Irrigation District. 
Mr. Pearson has certainly studied the public good by securing a man 
so thoroughly competent as deputy surveyor for this count}-. It was 
Mr. Ivownes who was selected by the great Hemet Dam compan}- to es- 
timate the capacity of their immense reservoir, and for twelve years he 
has been qualifying himself to fill any position in his profession. 

assessor's office. 

Bradford Horse, Assessor. 

Whatever the future of Riverside county may be — good or bad — no 
one person will have as much responsibility to answer for as Bradford 
Morse. From its inception — even if it was not born in his brain — the 
creation of a county just about as it now is has been the work by day 
and the dream by night of our excellent County Assessor. All honor 
to him and to all others, whether named or vinnamed, who gave their 
time and money to the cause. If the office he holds were given to him 
as a reward for his services, it was very fortunate that it fell into the 
hands of a so thoroughly competent man, for through all the trying 
ordeal of organizing the most complicated and difficult branch of the 
county government Mr. Morse has shown himself a splendid organizer 
and a most industrious and laborious man. The corps of able and effi- 
cient deputies he has called around him fully warrants this assertion. 
He was born in Massachusetts in 1848, and came to Riverside in 1881. 
He has filled many places of honor and responsibility under the city 
government, and has acquired a fair competency by industry and fair 
dealing. In person he is genial and pleasant ; in business he is prompt 
and correct. He is the right man in the right place.

has devoted a <^reat deal of time to horticulture, meantime serving as 
Chief Deputy Assessor for four years. The a])i)')inlun'nt of Mr. Rob- 



132 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

erts as chief deputy by Assessor Morse was made regardless of politics, 
his especial fitness being the main consideration, and that he lias earned 
his "well done, good and faithful." we can all testify. 

J. H. Wilson, 

Deput}' Assessor, whose portrait appears in the accompanying illustra- 
tion of the Assessor's office, was born in Cook county, Illinois, on the 
I2th June, 1866, and was educated so far as he could be in the common 
schools of that county. He afterward attended the Normal school at 
Valparaiso, Ind., and was graduated therefrom in June, 1884. His first 
business engagement was with the Michigan Central railroad for nearly 
three years. He afterward filled a position with the American Express 
Company in Chicago for a year. He then came to California, and after 
keeping books for the California Marble and Building Stone Company, 
at Colton, for two years, and keeping a grocerj' for one year, he was 
appointed Deputy Tax Collector for San Bernardino county. He served 
in this capacity for two years, with great success and satisfaction to his 
chief. Thus fitted to serve this county, Mr. Morse did wisely in select- 
ing him as his deputy. Mr. Wilson married Miss Myrtle Wj'eth, of 
Ontario, Calif., in October, 1888. He is a resident of Riverside and a 
firm friend of Riverside county, 

C. W. Finch, 

One of Riverside's active, energetic and popular business men, and one 
who has done his full share in making the city what it is today. He 
has held many places of honor and trust under the city government. 
For five years he was superintendent of streets, and during this time 
Riverside made the most rapid strides of improvement, and in no de- 
partment was this improvement more marked than in the department 
under Mr. Finch's control. Following his administration of the ofl^ce 
of street superintendent, Mr. Finch was appointed superintendent ■ f 
the department for the eradication of insect pests for the city of River- 
side. It was while filling this office that he introduced into general 
use an invention of his own for the more convenient and speedy man- 
ner of tenting trees for fumigation. This splendid invention has now 
gone into general use throughout the State. Mr. Finch is a native of 
Minnesota, where he was educated and for twenty-two years he re- 
mained in his native State. He took a hand in mining in Dakota in 
1879, and in the following year came to California and located in Riv- 
erside. Here he has been very successful. He owns a fine home and a 
ten-acre grove, where, with his family, he resides on Bandini avenue. 
He also owns other property throughout the city. He is a Republican: 
was an earnest advocate of county division; a member of the disburs- 
ing committee, and his appointment as deputy assessor was wise and 
well deserved.

Lyman Gregory, H. D. 

For biographical notice of Superintendent of Schools, see page 13S

A. B. ncCormick, Tax Collector, 

Comes from vSan Jacinto. He is 46 years old, was l)orn in Wellesvillt- , 
Ohio, and is of Scotch descent. But he has lived in California long 
enough to become thoroughly imbued with Western progressiveness. 
Mr. McCormick is a business man— has been engaged in mercantile 
pursuits all his life. He has lived in San Jacinto for ten years, and is 
noted for his strict integrity and strong, out-spoken convictions. He is 
an original Riverside county man, has an interesting family, and will 
remove to Riverside to live, retaining his business and property inter- 
ests at San Jacinto. Personally he is a most agreeable gentleman to 
meet, and as Tax Collector he has already demonstrated his splendi<l 
organizing ability in the masterly manner in which he is conducting 
the intricate business of his oflice. He evidently brings the .same busi- 
ness capacity to his aid in the execution of his public duties as have 
made him so successful as a business man. In the acquisition of Mr. 
McCormick as a citizen. Riverside scores another advantage over the 
county.

Is a native son of the C.oldeu West, himself and Mr. Hstudillo, Clerk

He has donated the fine collection to the Smithsonian Institute. Mr. 
Frink was acquainted with the locality where Riverside now stands 
when it was the herding-ground of wild horses and cattle. His elegant 
home is in El Casco, and his election to the office he now holds is a 
tribute to him as an honest man, a good neighbor, and a politician, but 
not a wire-puller.

John Q. North, 

One of the Commissioners selected by the Board of Supervisors to ad- 
just matters between Riverside and San Hernardino counties, is one of 
Riverside's favorite sons. He was born at St. .\nthony'.s Kalis (now 



136 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

Minneapolis), Minn., September i6, 1855. His early life was spent in 
attending school, his education being completed at the University of 
the Pacific at Santa Clara. Upon the founding of the Riverside colony, 
he joined his father here and for the next four years was the assistant 
secretary of the association. He has filled many offices of trust and 
responsibility in his adopted city, as well as in San Francisco. He was 
two years in the sub-treasury and mint in the latter place. He was also 
the general manager of the Bear Valley Land and Water Company for 
some years, during which time he resided at Redlands. Mr. North is 
an excellent bi:siness man, and having a thorough knowledge of county 
affairs both in San Bernardino and Riverside, his selection to his pres- 
ent office was certainly a very wise thing. 

W. S. Wise of Perris is Mr. North's co-laborer as a Commissioner 
in Partition between San Bernardino and Riverside counties. We were 
unable to get Mr. Wise's portrait in time for this publication, and hence 
have inserted Judge Potter's handsome face in his place. A good man 
like Judge Potter is always found in good company and that is our ex- 
cuse for putting his portrait and biography in here. 

A. H. Naftzger 

Is a native of Indiana and is forty-one years old. He was educated in 
the common schools of his native State, graduating from an Indiana 
high school. In 1S70 he removed to Kansas, where he took his first 
lessons in the banking business, and where were probably laid, deep 
and lasting, the principles that have been of so great value to him ever 
since. In 18S5 he came to Riverside and organized the First National 
Bank, and has been in charge of that splendid institution ever since, 
for the first two years as cashier and since as president. He is also 
president of the Perris Valley Bank. Mr. Naftzger is a good biisin ess 
man and with him and his colleague, Mr. McPhee, we have no doubt 
but the business of adjustment between this county and San Diego 
county will be speedily and satisfactorily accomplished. Certainh' the 
vSupervisors could have made no better choice in the whole county than 
they did when they named A. H. Naftzger as Commissioner. 

Horace McPhee. 

Although an Englishman by birth and education, there are few 
Americans more thoroughly American than H. McPhee ; and but few 
were the days that passed after the necessary five years of probation 
were ended before he renounced his allegiance to the old and heartilj- 
assumed his obligations to the new. Since then his affiliations have 
been with the Republican party, in which he has been honored by many 
tokens of approval of his consistent, earnest style of citizenship and in- 
cisive political life. Mr. McPhee is one of the many Californians who 
came to the Coast for his health, and after a severe struggle of many 
j'ears to gain this greatest of all earthly blessings, it is believed that a 



KIVKRSIDK COTNTV, 1893—4. 137 

naturally good constitution has triunipheil over his ailiiK-iit and thai 
now he bids as fair for a lon^j life of usefulness as any one. He was 
born in Shediac, New Hrunswick, March 6, 1S59 ; was educated at his 
native town, and early in life was offered a place in the offices of the 
Intercolonial Railway at Truro, Nova Scotia, where, with his character- 
istic earnestness' he ovenlid himself in close and unremitting applica- 
tion to the duties of his office. And when he could no lonj^er work and 
the road jjave him a six months' furlough to come to California, it was 
believed he would not live to reach the Coast. Hut he did live, and his 
furlough is not up yet. He came to Alameda, and commenced at once 
to recuperate, and in about a year married Miss Hattie H. IJynon, of 
that place. He came to Southern California in 18S7 and entered the 
journalistic field, his first venture being at Murrieta, where he became 
editor and soon after editor and proprietor of The Minriela Trauscript. 
From that he started The Klsiiiore Press, and both of which he still 
publishes, except that his Murrieta paper has been changed from The 
Tranacripl to The Valley Union. We need not comment on his ability 
as a newspaper man ; his success tells the story better than we can. 
His last appointment, and one which calls for this brief sketch of his 
life, is his selection as one of the commissioners to adjust the county 
finances between Riverside and San Diego county. 

Judge Harvey Potter 

Was horn in Turin, Lewis county, New York, July 17. 1S34. When he 
was three years old his father removed with his family to Illinois, .set- 
tling near Somonouk, De Kalb count)'. When twenty years old he 
went to Wheaton College, where he spent six years in the preparatory 
and college course, receiving the degree of A. B. on July 4, i860. He 
attended the law department of the University of Chicago, graduating 
in 1S62 with the degree of LL. B. In 1864 received the degree of A. B. 
from his alma mater. In August, 1862, he enlisted as a private in Co. 
H, 105th Ills. Vol. Inf., and was promoted from time to time until, in 
1863, he was made First Lieutenant and commanded Co. F of his regi- 
ment during part of the Atlanta campaign. He was County Judge of 
Greene county, Iowa, in 1868-69. He has always affiliateil with the 
Republican party, casting his first vote for John C. Fremont in 1856. 
He has been admitted to practice in the Supreme Courts of Illinois. 
Iowa and California, and the United States Circuit Courts. Judge 
Henry Booth, dean and leading professor in the law department of the 
University of Chicago, paid him the following tribute : ".\mong all the 
students of my school, from twenty popular colleges, not one was supe- 
rior to Harvey Potter." In August, 1SS7, he came to Riverside, Cali- 
fornia, where he has since resided and has built up a good law practice. 
Since Januarv, 1S91. he has been one of the Justices of the Peace of 
Riverside townshi]). On May 19, 1S93. he was appointed Court Com- 
missioner of Riverside, Califi'ini.i. Of l.it«- he ]\;\^ won the iirai-f mihI

CHAPTER XIV. 

EDUCATION IN RIVERSIDE COUNTY. 

After all, whatever good things may be said of our count}- officers, 
or however promising the outlook may be for the material prosperity 
of Riverside county, it is and always must remain in the character of 
our schools to say what shall be the future of our people. 

" 'Tis Education forms the common mind," 
and without well regulated schools and care in selecting teachers, the 
coming generation can never rise in the scale of intelligence and use- 
fulness as it will if the schools are carefully managed, and kept under 
the guidance of such men as now compose the County Board of Educa- 
tion. Look at their faces, read their biographies and judge whether 
our schools are safe under their keeping, or not. 

Rev. Geo. H. Deere, D. D. 

Dr. Deere is the honored president of the Board of Education of 
Riverside county. For the influence he has had on the cause of educa- 
tion in Riverside city, his adopted home, the reader is referred to our 
article on education on page 41; and it is only a fair inference that 
the same active interest and broad and liberal views which have char- 
acterized his connection with the city schools will be continued for 
many years, we hope, to assist in making our county schools the praise 
of the Pacific Coast. Dr. Deere is a native of Oswego, N. Y., and is 
now in his sixty-sixth year. He was educated in Brooklyn, N. Y. He 
commenced preaching when nineteen years of age, but was not or- 
dained till three years afterward. He married, in 1850, Miss Annie 
Louise Downing of Danbury, Conn. After pursuing his clerical profes- 
sion in Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Louisiana and Minnesota, he came 
to Riverside in 1S81 and at once organized the First Universalist 
Church, of which he has been pastor ever since. In 1886 the Lombard 
University of Galesburg, Ills., honored itself by conferring the degree 
of Doctor of Divinity upon him. The doctor's home and elegant church 
are on Lemon street near Seventh, where, with the wife of his youth, 
if he does not enjoy a happy life, he ought to.

icine, graduated from the Chicago Homeopathic Medical College, and 
practiced for several years in Chicago. He retnoved to California in 
1888, settling in San Jacinto, where he lived until the formation of the 
new county of Riverside, when he was nominated and elected County 
School Superintendent. He was an ardent supporter of the movement 
w hich led to the formation of Riverside county, and his election is a 
fitting reward for his efficient services in that regard, as well as a just 
recognition of his professional abilities and general worth as a citizen. 



140 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

Eli F. Brown, M. 5., fl. D., 

Superintendent of tlie schools of the city of Riverside and member of 
the County Board of Education, is a native of Virginia and was edu- 
cated under the direction of the " Society of Friends." His educational 
career has been mainly in the schools of Indiana and Ohio. For two 
years he served as professor of English literature in Purdue University 
at Lafayette, Indiana ; for three years as teacher of natural sciences in 
the State Normal School of Indiana ; for seven jears as assi-stant prin- 
cipal of the Indianapolis high school, and four years teacher of sciences 
in the Dayton, O., high school. Beside filling these important positions 
he has given several years to city superintendency. He is the author of 
the popular Eclectic series of school physiologies, published b}- the 
American Book Co. He has been successful in the management of his 
private business, and now owns two pieces of valuable property in the 
suburbs of Riverside. His administration of schools is noted for good 
business methods, sound judgment in school instruction and govern- 
ment, sympathetic regard for the interests of every child, and a kind 
but firm control of teachers. 

James W. Kerr, 

Eldest son of J. D. and M. E. Kerr, was born in Broome count}', N. Y., 
April 26, 1S56. When the War of the Rebellion broke out his father at 
once responded to the call, joined the army and served to the end of 
the war. At an early age the subject of this sketch manifested a great 
desire for study and as he advanced in 3ears was always found in ad- 
vance of boys of his age. After graduating from the high school at 
Bingham ton, N. Y., he removed with his parents to Missouri and a year 
later to Kansas, where his mother now resides, his father having de- 
parted this life on Christmas Day, 1890. At the age of nineteen young 
Kerr started out as a country school teacher, having taken a course of 
normal school training at Campbell's Normal University. Mr. K. was 
married June 13, 1880, to Mrs. E. S. Channell, and two bright little 
girls now cheer their home. Mr. Kerr's life as a teacher has been very 
successful. His last three years in Kansas found him principal of the 
school at Netawaka. He came to California for his health, settling in 
Santa Ana, where he resided for two years. Four 3'ears ago he was 
called to the principalship of the schools of South Riverside, which po- 
sition he has since held to the entire satisfaction of the patrons of the 
school. On the fifth of June last he was appointed a member of the 
County Board of Education, a position he is filling with marked ability 
and satisfaction. 

H. D. Kinney, H. S., 

Was selected bj^ the Board of Supervisors as a member of the County 
Board of Education solely because he was making a grand record as a 
teacher in Banning, where he has been engaged for another year. Mr. 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. 141 

Kinney is a native of Rock county. Wis. His earlier years were spent 
on a farm, but tliis did not prevent him from attenilinj^ scliof)!. .\t the 
age of sixteen he entereil the Milton College in his native vState, teach- 
ing in the winter months and studying in the spring and fall. He 
graduated in 1S7S with the degree of bachelor of Sciences, and later his 
alma mater conferred on him the higher degree of Master of Sciences. 
Mr. Kinney is a teacher from choice and his whole life has been shaped 
to that end. lie has taught continuously for many years. We regard 
it as fortunate for the county to have the services of such men as Mr. 
Kinney to help sliape her etlucational institutions. 

THK SCHOOLS. 

Riverside coutily has five high school districts, as follows: 

Riverside District, of wliich E. W. Holmes is clerk and Miss Eu- 
gene Fuller is principal. Dr. Brown will give his personal attention 
and teach some branches. It equals the best in the State. 

Hemet Union District, l'. L. Weber clerk. Dr. A. \V. riummer 
has had charge of the school since its organization and is bringing it to 
a high state of efficiencv. He continues. School located at San Ja- 
cinto. 

Vale Union District al Winchester; J. N. Walters clerk. Prof. 
W. R. Carpenter was principal last year and gave eminent satisfaction. 
Warren Loree takes the school this year. His previous excellent work 
in San Ueruardino county gives protni.se of success in his new position. 

Elsinore Union District; C. ]M. Gillman clerk. Prof. J. N. Sum- 
mers Ijrouglit the school to a very high grade, although the numbers 
were few. In point of scholarship no school in the Stale outside of the 
great cities, if anywhere, can excel it. 

Midland Union District is a new high school district and we are 
unable to give llic- clerk's name or the teachers'. It is located on the 
Alessandro trad. 

Want of space compels us to omit mention particularly of the vari- 
ous district schools throughout the county, except to give the names of 
the districts and of the clerks. 

Of the .Vrlington school we had an interesting historical sketch, 
but had not sjjace to give it, which we very niucli regret, as it is one of 
the best and oldest in the county.

CHAPTER XV. 

THE CITY GOVERNMENT. 

Having in previous chapters given pretty thoroughly the history of 
Riverside and her leading citizens and business men and business enter- 
prises, we have now great pleasure in introducing to the people of Riv- 
erside county the gentlemen into whose hands the citizens of Riverside 
have entrusted their municipal affairs. 

To the people of the. city they need no introduction, but in the new 
territory embraced in the county they are not so well known. 

Inasmuch as Riverside enjoys the distinction of being the richest 
city in the United States in proportion to her population ; of having the 
best school system in California, and of having the lowest rate of taxa- 
tion of any city on the Coast, it is only fair to infer that the men whose 
portraits and biographical sketches follow, being the men who are at 
the head of the city government of Riverside, deserve a full share of 
the credit for the splendid condition of Riverside, especially as many of 
them have been for years serving the city in their official capacities. 

The city offices are in the Loring Opera House bolck, on the corner 
of Seventh and Main streets.

interested here in banking and is the president of the Riverside City 
Water Company. 

A. A. Wood 

I'ills two verv important oflices in Riverside. He is at once a member 
of the Hoard of City Trustees and DeiJUty Count\ Clerk. The subject 



144 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

of this sketch was born in Sonoma county, California, in 1S59. He fin- 
ished a common school education by a course at the State Normal at 
San Jose. After two years spent at San Diego he located in Riverside, 
where he entered the mercantile field, and with his father took up the 
hardware business, when, after a short time, he became the sole pro- 
prietor, and in turn was succeeded b}- Geo. D. Cunningham. Mr. Wood 
has always shown that the interests of the city were his interests, and 
w^hen he entered as a candidate for City Trustee it was no cause of sur- 
prise that he was elected by a handsome vote. A staunch county divis- 
ion man and one who was not afraid of showing his colors. He was 
appointed by Mr. Condee for his business ability and loyalty to the cause. 

E. F. Kingman 

Came from Brockton, Mass., where he was born in 185 1. When twenty- 
six years of age he, with his faniil}', arrived in Riverside to make it 
their future home. He is at present a City Trustee and in that capacity 
gives abundant evidence that he is wide awake to the interests of the 
city; while as secretary and manager of the Rubidoux Building Com- 
pany he is a careful, shrewd business man. Aside from the two offices 
just mentioned he is the secretary of the IvUgonia Fruit Growing and 
Packing Company, a verj' heavy fruit concern. His home, which is 
very beautifully arranged and well kept and cared for, is at 185 Rubi- 
doux avenue. 

A. Keith, 

A banker, a horticulturist and a pioneer. Born in Massachusetts about 
seventy-two j-ears ago and since 1876 has been interested in Riverside. 
At present a member of the Board of City Trustees. 

Hon. W. W. Noland 

Was born June 25, 1825, at Madison county, Ind.. where also he re- 
ceived a good English education. The first thirty years of his life were 
spent on a farm. He then went into a railroad office, where he re- 
mained till i860. He was then elected treasurer of his native count}- 
and in this capacit}' served eight years. He then became agent for the 
American and Merchants' Union Express Companies and continued so 
for two j'ears. He went to Indianapolis and was in business there for 
ten years. In 1880 he came to California and settled in Riverside, 
where he has remained ever since. When the city was incorporated he 
was elected city marshal, which place he held for two years. On the 
death of Judge Conway he was chosen Recorder. He has filled this 
important place and that of Justice of the Peace ever since, to the en- 
tire satisfaction of the people of Riverside. The judge married Miss 
Anna D. McClanahan of Madison county, Ind., in 1S46 and she still 
lives to make him and his family happy.

Mount Union Collei^e in Ohio and Mastman's Husiness Colle_i(c at 
Poujjhkeepsie, N. V., in this way. He tauj^hl school from 1S77 to 1SS7. 
and in July of the latter year came to Riverside. He at once accepted 



146 HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 

a situation with Clarence Stewart in his carriage and iniplenient store 
and continueil there until April, 1892, when he was elected to the re- 
sponsible position he now holds. Mr. Phelps is industrious, pains- 
taking^ and obliging, and he is undoubtedl}' on the road to greater hon- 
ors. He was married in his native town on the 2Sth of September, 18S1, 
to Miss Carrie M. Chapman. Two bo3-s and a girl make their home 
happy and lively. 

J. W. Johnson, 

Whose portrait appears in this work, was born in Boston, 1859. He is 
a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, having re- 
ceived his earlier education in the public schools of Boston. As a civil 
engineer and surveyor Mr. Johnson has had large experience, and for 
several years previous to his coming to Riverside, which was ten years 
ago, he was engaged on waterworks construction and was several times 
the assistant engineer in charge on contracts of no small importance. 
After years of practice in this city he was appointed in 1888 as City En 
gineer and in 1890, when the offices of Cit}- Engineer and Superintend- 
ent of Streets were merged into one, he was selected to fill the new of- 
fice. Mr. Johnson was married in 1892 to Miss Emeline S. Chapman of 
Riverside. L,ike all of the public-spirited citizens of Riverside he sup- 
ported enthusiastically county division and his time and money both 
were freely spent toward that end. Of all our city or county officials 
none are more courteous or obliging than our City Engineer and Super- 
intendent of Streets. 

W. A. Purington, 

The City Attorney of Riverside, and whose portrait is true to life, is a 
native of New Hampshire and was born in Holderness in June of 1858. 
In 1880 he graduated from Yale College, and soon commenced teaching 
in the high school at Rochester, Minn. After studying law and teach- 
ing school for five years in Chicago, he practiced law exclusively, and 
in 1888 arrived in Riverside, where he was at once admitted to practice 
before the Supreme Court of California, and has followed closely since 
the profession of his choice. He was appointed Cilv Attorney on ac- 
count of his eminent fitness for the place, as he stands well up in the 
bar of Riverside county. 

James M. Drake, City Treasurer. 

Some twelve years ago Mr. Drake opened the pioneer book store of 
Riverside. We need not remind the old settlers of how proud River- 
side was at having a highly respectable book store all its own, but such 
was the case, and to the credit of our people, no less than to Mr. Drake, 
it was a complete success, and he only sold out when the people elected 
him to the office of City Treasurer. He is now serving his fourth term 
in that responsible and honorable office. Mr. Drake is a Kentuckian

who still lives to make a hajipy California home for her husliand. They 
rame to this State December 23, iSSi, ami at cjuie entereil into business 
and bou<jht a block of laml on the East Side, where he has since re. 
sided. There is no more elej^anl, convenient or cosy home in Riverside 
today than that of our esteemed Cit\- Treasurer at 102S liast Tenth st. 

Geo. F. Ward 

Is the man who stands at the head of the tire ile])artment of Riverside, 
and who gives such general satisfaction to the resiilents in that capac- 
ity, lie is a native of Brockton, Mass., where he was born on the 22d 
of April, 1S61, ami where he received his education; and here he learned 
thoroughly his trade, that of carpentering and building. In May, 1SS2, 
Mr. W. came to Riverside and engaged in contracting and building, at 
which he was a success until 1887, when he embarked in his present 
occui)ation — that of undertaking and embalming and a dealer in artists' 
materials, picture frames, etc. During the fall of '87 he entered the 
tire department, when promotion followed ])romotion till in August, 
1S90, he was elected Chief. When the count\' division came before the 
])eople Mr. Ward took a bold stand and was backward neither in giving 
his time nor his money to help along what was to him a cherished 
theme — Riverside county. 

W. Q. Polcene, 

Tiie gentleman who stands on guard at the engine-house night and day, 
ready at a moment's notice to send out the fire apparatus to any part 
of the city whenever an alarm is turned in. He is the only member of 
the Riverside Fire Department who is paid for his services, and since 
his appointment the first of the present year he has been very faithful 
to his duties. Mr. Polcene was born in Wisconsin in 1861. He ac- 
(juired his education before leaving home. He spent his early davs on 
a ranch and in 1886 came to California. He located in Riverside, and 
with the excei)tion of a short time in which he was teaming, he has 
served the people; most of the time as local inspector of fruit pests, in 
which capacity he is an adept. He is now Assistant Foreman of the 
Fire Department of Riverside.

Geo. W. Dickson, City Harshal. 

It may not be known to many outside of his immedi;i.te circle of 
actjuaintances that our popular City Marshal, or Chief of Police, as you 
choose to call him, is a native son of the Golden West. He was born 
in the city of San Bernanlino on the 27th of April, 1S57, ^'''^ received 
his education and business training in his native town. His first ven- 
ture for himself was in the stock and dairv business, in which he was

successful. Indeed it is a little curious that in whatever he has en- 
gaged he has been a success, and by industry and good tnanagenient he 
has acquired a large property in Riverside, where he came in 1S77. He 
carried on the liver}- business here for several years, in which he made 
considerable money; but the best contract he ever made was with Mrs. 
Alice S. Newcomb of Wisconsin, whom he married on the loth of No- 
vember, 187S. He was deputy sheriff under the Coles administration

The subject of this sketch, whose portrait appears in the group of

" What is home without a mother? " What would a city, county

fearless, intelligent, jjrogressive i)ress? It is not saying too much for 
the press of Riversi<Ie to affirm that it pos.ses.ses all of these require-

HISTORY AND DIRECTORY OF 



Hon. E. W. Holmes. 

The central figure in the accompanying cut is the editor and one of 
the proprietors of the Rirerside. Daih/ Press and Weekly Press and Ilur- 
tieulturist. He has been identified with the growth and prosperity of 
Riverside since 1S75, and but few men have done more than he toward 
advancing the moral and material pros])erity of the city, and to show 
to the world its possible resources. Mr. Holmes has done much in the 
line of horticultural advancement, both by example and by his position 
as editor of the Horticulturist. He has also been one of the foremost

,T. P. Bal'mgartner 



educators of Riverside, in the broadest sense of the term, but as this is 
noticed in our article on education we need not recapitulate here. It is 
as the leading figure in the press of Riverside we wish to speak of him. 
In the fall of 18SS Mr. Holmes, associated with R. J. Pierson and J. H. 
Roe, purchased the two leading dailies and the two principal weeklies 
of the city, the latter gentleman retiring from the firm a year later. As 
the editor in chief he has placed these papers in the ranks of the lead- 
ing journals of Southern California. His style of writing is clear, for- 
cible and comprehensive. He is a very conscientious newspaper man, 
and though, like others, he may err in judgment, yet he is a man of 
convictions, and no one will read his editorials without knowing ex- 



RIVERSIDE COUNTY, 1893-4. 151 

actly what these convictions are. Mr. Holmes is fifty-one years of a^e; 
a native of Massachusetts, and an ardent and consistent Republican. 
He served his district one term in the .Assembly witli credit, an<l his 
city as a Trustee for over six yeiirs, durin)^ two years of which he was 
president of the Hoard. Riverside has no better citizen, and no one 
who has done more for her prosperity than he. 

R. J. Pierson 

Has been connecle<l with the press of Riverside since 1.S.S5, and inter- 
ested in the material welfare of the city for many years. His native 
State is Ohio. He was born in Lickinj^ county in 1848, and attended 
the public schools till fifteen years of aj^e, when lie started, like many 
other great men have done, to learn the priiitiu}^ trade, commencinj^ at 
Monte/uma, Iowa. He worked in many different offices and ])laces, 
livinir at different times in Chicaj^o and St. Louis, San Francisco and 
Sacramento. He was married in 1871 to Miss Louise 1'. Marshall, of 
Illinois, and is the father of three children. After a very succe.ssful 
newspaper experience of several years' duration in Iowa and Colorado, 
he came to California for the second time, locating in Los Angeles, and 
about a year later in Riverside. He soon became interested in The 
Vallen Krhoy and in 18S8 became part of the firm of Holmes, Roe & 
Pierson, publishers and projirietors of the leading daily and weekly 
newspapers \u Riverside. .Asa news])aper man Mr. Pierson is a success. 
He is thoroughly conversant with the wants of the cit)', a shrewd busi- 
ness man, and :\\\ honest, conscientious citizen. He is the business 
manager of the firm of Holmes & Pierson, and a friend in every respect 
to the city aiul county of Riverside. Holmes & Pierson have given to 
Riverside the cleanest, most progressive and in every way respectable 
daily j^aper published south of Los .Angeles, and only in point of size 
is Thf I'rt'Kx at all inferior to the best dailies in Southern California. 

riark Roscoe Plaisted 

Was born in Boston, Mass., June 12, 1S67. When quite young he moved 
to West Somerville, Mass., where he early acquired a tasle for newspa- 
per work. .After graduating at the grammar schools of that ])lace he 
removed with his parents to Riverside, and during the first part of his 
residence followed various occupations. He soon apprenticed himself to 
The Pi-el's ami IfurlicultrtriHl, under L. M. Holt, where he worked three 
and a half years. In 1888 he went East on account of ill health, and 
returning, worked on many of the leading dailies of Southern Califor- 
nia. FeljVuary 22, 1890, saw him married to Miss Sadie Burrell, also a 
printer, and in June of the same year they together started The lilier- 
xiile I'lulerprixe and ha\e always worked for the city and county of Riv- 
erside. For a more e.xtended notice of Mr. Plaisted's paper see page 66.

young man, as may l)e seen by his portrait, which fairly shows his char- 
acter. He is ambitious, energetic and iufhistrious. He commenced his 
editorial career in Riverside on The Phoenix, and at once established a 
good feeling between him.self and the people of Riverside. Mr. Haum- 
gartner is a native of Boone county, Missouri, where he was born on 
the 9th I-'ebruary, 1861, and came to California six years ago. He is in 
the highest and best sense a self-made man, having eilucate<l himself

practically without the aid of personal tuition. He is quiet and unas- 
snniinji in manner, and devoted first to his family and home, and then 
to his profession above all else. His hitihest ambition seems to be that 
he be accounted a good editor and a worthy, useful citizen. He prom- 
ises well for a life of usefulness to society and of honor to himself. 

Ed. C. Bynon 

Is a Californian b}- birth and is now in his twenty-first year. He has a 
fair education, obtained from the common schools of Alameda and 
Oakland and a course of study in the Baptist College of Los Angeles. 
As yet his biography is unwritten and his future is to be what he him- 
self shall make it. His choice lies in the literary field — a field crowded 
with laborers at the bottom, but like Daniel Webster's view of the legal 
profession, "plenty of room at the top." He is associated with his 
father in the publication of this work. 



Riverside County Reflex, 

One of the leading weekly papers of Riverside, is published by J. P. 
Baumgartner, whose office is in the Rnbidoux block. After a 3'ear's 
editorial work in Riverside on the Plianix, Mr. B. established the Rir- 
erside Refe.r, with a view of making it the leading count)' paper in case 
of county division, and that failing he intended to make it a literary 
home paper. In accordance with his expectations, the new and famous 
county of Riverside was fully formed and established May 2, 1893, when 
the Refiex was just a year old, and the next subsequent issue of the pa- 
per, dated May 6, came out in enlarged and improved form as the Riv- 
erside County Retiex. Since then the progress and prosperity of the 
Reflex have, been phenomenal, and today it stands abreast of the best 
county newspapers in the State. This fact is generally recognized and 
conceded by the press. By its liberal and progressive business policy, 
coupled with an independent 3'et fair and conservative editorial tone, 
it has done much to harmonize and unite the different sections of the 
new county in a cohesive political and industrial policy, and to bring 
the people close together in social and business relations. In the 
meantime, no agency has worked harder or more efficiently in promo- 
ting the material interests of the whole county than the Reflex. In the 
line of special work it has been wonderfully effective, and in this way 
has done its full share within the past year to attract and hold attention 
to Riverside and Riverside county. Thus the Reflex has got close to 
the people. It fully and fairly occupies the field as a county newspaper 
and family journal of a very high standard — clean in every line, pro- 
gressive in every feature, representative of every interest and all sec- 
tions. There is always room for papers like the Reflex.
